Hi aka Flipper,
Before touching the inside of your case, you must shutdown
your computer, unplug it, and ground yourself to release any
static electricity from your fingertips.
RAM sticks are held in place by two levers which snap in place.

|| Hi aka Flipper,
||
|| Your RAM should not be mismatched as it is now.
|| Try using just the one 512 MB stick as a test please.

||| Hi to all.
||| My PC is a P4 with ht,it has an onboard video card.I have loaded the
||| following games:
||| Doom 3
||| Battlefield Vietnam
||| Tribes Vengeance
||| Tribes 2
|||
||| Tribes 2 worked fine however,the other three games were "sloppy" and slow
||| and from time to time "froze up". I was told that I needed more RAM (only
||| had 256 meg) and a better video card....I arranged with the local shop to
||| install another 512 of RAM and a Radeon ASUS A9250 video card.
||| After installation,Battlefield Vietnam and Tribes Vengeance played really
||| well...very pleased.
||| Tribes 2 would not launch giving an error message Unhandled Exception
||| c0000005 at address 0000000.
||| Doom 3 would not play giving a really massive list of details headed error
||| during Initialization and later in the message "the current video
||| card/driver combination does not support the neccessary features (lots of
||| "couldn't find" and "couldn't open" details etc. )
|||
||| My problem is basically that whilst I like playing BV and TV
||| , the younger family members prefer the Tribes 2 and Doom 3 !
|||
||| Could anyone assist me please with this one ?
