Solve : What is DD2??

1.	Solve : What is DD2??
Answer» hi i wa going through my grandmothers computer to fix it and i went to test the ram. I pulled out two 1GB DD2 sticks and stuck a 2gb DDR2 stick in to see if it was a ram problem, but all i get is beeps when i start the computer up. I had never heard of DD2, so censored is it? its a really old HP based computer.Some DDR2 sticks were labelled DD2. Presumably R's were expensive, I guess.thanks, is there any reason why a stick labeled DDR2 would not work in PLACE of the other...besides it being BROKEN. im sure its not broken though.

ROFL Quote from: dustynana on December 16, 2013, 09:42:08 PM thanks, is there any reason why a stick labeled DDR2 would not work in place of the other...besides it being broken. im sure its not broken though. If after replacing the RAM, the comp beeps. It means the RAM is either not INSTALLED PROPERLY or the RAM is bad. The later one is true in most of the cases. actually all the sticks of ram beeped, even the DD2 ones. i had to put the ram back in a certain order to get the computer to stop beeping and turn on. Have you consulted the Owner's Manual ? ?there is no owners manual to be found. I did get most of the DDR2 ram to work after testing again today. One brand of ram wouldn't work though, their Topram sticks. But to get the other ram to work i had to reseat most of the sticks 2-5 times. im guess its a problem with the ram slots themselves. Did you try cleaning the ram slots with something like a small paint brush (unused)? Or use an air blower to blow the dust out of the computer case.
