I have a Lenovo G50-70 laptop. The specs say that supports up to 8GB PC3-12800 DDR3L SDRAM 1600 MHz. I bought it with 4GB of RAM and I want to add extra 4GB.
I bought one 4GB RAM stick from Crucial, with similar specs of the one built in, but it my computer won't detect.
- Memory is not recognized neither by Windows or BIOS
- BIOS is up to date
- Running Win10 64bit
- It's not a connection issue (I tried multiple times)
- The motherboard has 2 slots. I tried switching places, but it never detects the new memory
- If I leave only the new memory, computer won't boot
- I tried also with a new Crucial RAM memory of 2GB, and the behavior was always the same as the one of 4GB (thus I don't expect that is a faulty memory)
Here's a picture of the memory sticks I have now. The Crucial is the new one; the Samsung is the one that came with the laptop.
