I have an HP dx5150 small form factor PC that will not boot when I install F1-3200PHU2-2GBNT. I have tried one module alone and two together, but I still get the same results.
My research shows that these modules should work in this computer, but I get beeping and the front LED flashes red 5 times. HP tech support says this is due to "memory is bad or installed incorrectly".
Below are the specs for memory required by this PC:
DIMMs
The memory sockets on the system board can be populated with up to four industry-standard DIMMs. These memory sockets are populated with at least one preinstalled DIMM. To achieve the maximum memory support, you can populate the system board with up to 8GB (1-Gbit Technology) of memory configured in a high-performing dual channel mode.
The memory available may be limited by the operating system.
DDR-SDRAM DIMMs
For proper system operation, if the computer supports DDR-SDRAM DIMMs, the DIMMs must be:
- industry-standard 184-pin
- unbuffered PC3200 400 MHz-compliant
- 2.5 volt DDR-SDRAM DIMMs.
The DDR-SDRAM DIMMs must also:
- support CAS latency 3 (CL = 3)
- contain the mandatory JEDEC SPD information
In addition, the computer supports:
- 128Mbit, 256Mbit, 512Mbit, and 1Gbit non-ECC memory technologies
- single-sided and double-sided DIMMS
- DIMMs constructed with x8 and x16 DDR devices; DIMMs constructed with x4 SDRAM are not supported
The system will not start if you install unsupported DIMMs.
Thanks for your help.
