You just need to reset the CMOS before putting the new sticks in. Should work fine once you've done that.
Help!!! New memory sticks cause no boot condition!!!

Ok, I just bought 2 refurbished 512MB 3200 memory sitcks (samsung) to go from 1 gig (2 mushkin 3200 512MB sticks) to 2.
My computer was oced at 220 (FSB), and when I installed the 2 sticks my computer wouldnt boot. At first it did but it only wrote a couple of line on the usual black starting screen and stopped. Then I tried again and all I could get is a long beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep, beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep, beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep sound (longer than the usual beep). I even tried to remove the new sticks I installed, same problem!!!! What is going on? Is my computer dead? Because of ram sticks? That I just bought? and that are supposed to be 100% compatible with my mobo?????
Well now I flashed my bios, so I can restart with 200 FSB instead. It worked but I haven't tried to install my new memory again... going now. BUT PLZ TELL ME WHATS GOIN ON!!! IM SCARED!!!!!!!
