It's one of two things. Either it's the fact that you neglected to remove the battery cable before removing the memory, or that particular memory isn't compatible for whatever reason, but Ide be willing to bet it's the first one. Nice way to fry a main board as well. I upgraded the memory on a vostro not too long ago, and forgot to unplug the battery cable. It did this exact same thing. I removed it, put the old memory back in, powered it to clear the error, and then powered it off. I then removed the battery cable, held the power button down for 30 seconds to drain the system and then installed the new memory. It came up, cycled twice and then into the bios to inform me that the configuration had changed.
Think on Dell and could be wrong it is best to unplug the battery flip it over and press the power button for 30 or 45 seconds (cant remember which) to clear the Cmos and system thus should fix this again if it is the same with dell
How much longer did you wait after the video cut out???? Looking at the time line the video stopped 38 seconds after computer shut off and started again…. I upgraded to a 990 pro 1 tb and put 64 gb of Kingston impact 5600 but only runs at 5200. But anyways I had a panic attack too… mine took around 4 minutes or soo to boot. It did a cycle of lights all the way till it powered off and turned on again (that was at-least 2 total minutes like your video) and then took another two minutes or so and then booted on.. I would try again and give it more time. I was panicked until I watched another RUclipsr give it 4 or 5 minutes in his videos and eventually it booted. Mine did the same thing and I mean at least 4 minutes total of what you showed until it worked, at least. I would estimated 4-6 total minutes
bro don't waste your time; this guy didn't even disconnect the battery before tinkering with his ram. He shouldn't be allowed near a computer ever again.
@@XNimpoX right, I followed the steps on the manual, def says to disconnect battery before switching the ram out. Don’t want any static to destroy components..
Bottom cover and top cover is metal. The small back portion where exhausts are is plastic. The Palm rest/keyboard is plastic with some time of rubber coating to give it a nice feel.
4k laptop shipping with chinese hynix memory, was not expecting that, wanted to order 64gb, but definitely will order the lowest option and upgrade to samsung
Look at the power light. It is giving you a 2,4 code. That is a RAM failure. (See the M16 R1 Service Manual, p 86.)
Hold the power button down for 20 seconds to clear CMOS it should fix your issue with the memory.
Put the old ram back in. For troubleshooting purposes it can help identify whether or not the problem is isolated to the new ram

Try to remove the battery and coin cell battery, wait for 1min and assemble it back. Check if it work.

On the cofigure page it want XMP.
Also is it ECC.
It looks like you need to get the right RAM for it.

some people just don't care about dragging their tech around on hard surfaces.
Bro put some pad or something more comfort under the laptop when you are doing something like this.rough Surfaces can damage the laptop

@@XNimpoX putting those ram chips in was not very gentle either. Need to lean in there and slowly and gently place it correctly while aligned. yikes

Poor laptop, ever heard of handle with care and place it on a Mat first?
so what problem and is it solve
why it didn't boot up ?
Looks like quite a task to get the chassis open
You forgot to unplug the battery bro
i noticed this as well could have damaged the board
Is the whole laptop metal or which part of it is plastic?
the deck is plastic :D still feels premium though.

The laptop built like a tank!!!
a bios reset fixed it for me
How do you reset the BIOS?
@@TaxEvasionUS hold power for 60s
reset bios
RESET CMOS.
People just dont take care of their own nice laptop.
The ram looks like it's upside down
While it may look that way, RAM is not symmetrically designed, so it's impossible to install backwards/upsidedown .
Damn dat power brick looks so cheap lol !
they only offer 330W SFF GaN AC adapter with x16 and in some region with m18
I'm going with the ROG scar 16 instead...

SK Hynix is from South Korea my man, but I would have preferred Samsung too
what you need 64gb on a gaming laptop for? 2m chrome tabs?

My M16 came with SK 32gb ram. Only costs $2.3k after discounts. Upgraded to Crucial 64GB ram for $210 on Amazon
hahah can't afford a sabrent?!
