My computer has been running fine with its 6GB of RAM, but i decided to increase the RAM by 12GB to 18GB. I purchased some new RAM with identical specs to the current RAM, but when I put it on the Mobo i get POST codes 68 68 F3 over and over again and it it shows nothing on screen. Everything about the board is stock, no over clocking or updated BIOS or anything. I tried each new stick individualy with the current RAM(same result). Tried just one of the new sticks by its self (same result). Tried differnt slot arangements, 1,3,5,2 and 2,1,3,4 (same result). Computer still boots fine with the old 6GB of RAM, why wouldn't this new RAM work?
