Hey I have an standard emachine with a AMD 3200 processor with 512MB of RAM running windows XP. Theres are 4 slots for RAM with 2 256MB taking up the first 2 slots.
First I installed 1GB of RAM by taking out the 256 in the first slot, placing it in the third slot and placed the 1GB in the first slot. This gave me the BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH.
I retried by plugging the 256 back into the first slot and the 1GB into the third slot. This allows windows to boot, but most of the time when it is booting it gos to a black screen with a blinking underscore. And I usually have to restart it a couple of times for it to boot windows.
WTF IS UP?
