Hello
I Have HP Compaq 8000 Elite SFF PC working with (2 *1G PC3-10600) and (1 *2G PC3-10600) Ram and the machine was working fine, today i bought 1*4G PC3-12800 Ram to upgrade BUT it didn`t work and the machine gives me periodic 5 short beebs and didn`t open, however the same Ram works properly on another machine !
Is there any compatibility problem for the HP 8000 and Pc3-12800 Ram and it should be replaced with PC3-10600 ?? Or what can solve the problem ?
Thanks in advance.
