    Dude YOU ARE THE COMPUTER BOMB! Did a Google Search when this happened to mine but not before almost throwing it in the dumpster. Followed your easy to understand instructions and I was back in business! Didn't even have to replace any memory banks. Apparently one of them just needed reseating. THANKS SO MUCH!

    WOW. Thank you so much. This really works. My cat knocked my tower over and my tower started making a beeping sound. After watching your video and following your steps, my computer is back up and running.

    I had this same problem on a Dell Optiplex 745 It started out as just amber lights. Then error 3 & 4 lights. After a lot of checking to see if connections were secure. The solution ended up being simply taking out memory and reinstalling it making sure they were seated properly. So this worked for me thanks

    Thank God for the internet and people like you! My sister freaks out when our PC suddenly shuts down (while she's doing her projects) and when we turn it on it beeps like it's gonna explode. This saves us from going to the computer shop for repair. Thank you again! (Works well with Optiplex 960)

    Thank you Sir.. My refurbished Dell 780 just arrived from eBay via FedEx with this issue. Mine has no error code lights, but was buzzing just like yours, .so I tried your method in the hope that would save me weeks of hassle with eBay returns and refunds etc.
    It worked extremely well. It would seem that during transit the RAM was pushed out of alignment. I'm subscribing.

    I see the problem you experienced was a bad RAM stick. But what would one do if the DIMM slots aren't working? I have tested my sticks and they all work fine on slots 2 and 4 but my slots 1 and 3 do not work.

    Ty you so much.. I was surfing the net and out of a sudden it said that an error had happened that it was fixing it for me it restarted by itself like four or five times after that it was just beeping and it was showing the same thing as the one on your video I did exactly what you did and it started working I guess one of the memories wasn't on there right.... But I'm on it right now it's working just fine... 🤗🤗

    I have led 3 and 4 on but no beeps if I take memory out then I get the beeps 1-3-2 then nothing. when I put even on stick in no matter the slot or memory still get 3 and 4 led but no sound at all and now post then what. I'm thinking my bios is crap, reset it cleared it ect and still same problems. when power is supplied it will spin up the fans and then off and one a few times. then when power button is pressed it acts as if it wants to do something but all I get is led 3 and 4, yet no post to screen dont even flash the screen or anything, Also if I just put one stick in it will still show 3 and 4 led's and not just the one but no memory no led 3 or 4 lit and I get the beeps.

    ?? 4 u. I tried installing new ram. It wasn't compatible so I put the old ram in it but it won't work. No display. The 1 light on front is lit up. Its beeping I think a 1-3-2or3. Could I really have fried both old sticks of ram by trying the new?

    What’s the difference from the black slot and white ?

    • @computerspecialist1398
      @computerspecialist1398  4 года назад +1

      Keith Samano , Black slot is secondary slot and white slot is primary slot. In dell, first, use white slots if you still have more memory then use black slots.

    I've got a 755, recently I bought 4 x 2GB RAM sticks, total 8GB but Win 7 only reports 4GB.
    The identical pairs are in the same channels. CPUID CPU-Z reports the correct 8GB in each slot for the two channels. I have read that these old DELL PCs will only work with RAM sticks that have chips on both sides of the PCB. But why does CPUID report them correctly and not Win 7????
    Others have reported that Win 7 detects the 2GB sticks as only 1GB each..
    Does anyone else have this problem?
