Solved How much RAM do you have installed?

[Pooch]

No I have fixed the main problems and Windows runs fine on 12GByte RAM but when I try to boot up with 16GByte .........BAM!! blue screen. Something about a kernal fault

Well, that certainly is odd. Perhaps it's a particular stick of RAM? You could try isolating each of them and running Windows 8.

I have tried mixing the 3 sticks and it makes no difference, 8 runs fine. Windows 7 runs fine on all 4 I haven't tried putting the sticks in individually yet as I didn't see the point.
Maybe I should do it.

I am asking as my Windows 8 will not boot with more than 12 GByte RAM

I have 16Gb of ram. Win 8 runs well. Have set it up on dual boot and loaded on new ssd drive.

OK I tried resetting the BIOS as a last resort and it now works This is really strange because I cannot see a difference :shock:
