elitebook 8760w
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

I have a strange issue. I've upgraded my 8760m to  16GB ram and I'm running a 2670qm cpu. I bought two more 8 gb sticks of ram and the laptop won't even post when they are added. In order to test the new ram I removed the 16 GB I was running and booted with just the new ram......it booted fine. I then booted with one of my old 8 GB sticks of ram and one new one and it booted fine. If I add one chip to either one of the empty slots after booting successfully with just 16 GB of ram (in other words trying to boot with 3 sticks of ram installed for a total of 24 GB) the laptop won't post. If I fill all four slots with identically specced ram....the laptop won't post.......is there anything else I can try to make 32 GB of ram work?
