    Make sure the memory you purchased is compatible.

    Use Crucial's SSD and RAM compatibility checker for your PC or system. Select your system to find compatible upgrades.

      that board only supports 1.8volt DDR2 1200/1066/800 memory chips so make sure the new ones are spec’d accordingly.
      memory support list is found here; https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard...10#support-doc

        We could also do with knowing the following;

        Will the computer boot with just the two new sticks of RAM in the MB.

        What is the brand and model name or number of the RAM.

        What processor do you have in the board.
