I seem to recall you saying that your old computer was 8 years old. I'm
surprised the RAM would even fit in the slot. If I were a betting man, I'd
guess that your problem is that memory - your new motherboard may have
sufficient backwards compatibility to accept it, but I doubt the default BIOS
settings would allow for smooth running - something really doesn't make
sense -- that memory from your old machine shouldn't even have fit into the
socket of your new machine
Well it was a new motherboard and uses DDRR Ram chips which are the
same as the new computer. At least it worked. But it was odd F7 was not
able to boot. I will have 2 GB this Monday and will try again. The
little new computer is sure tiny and well done.
