...sorry, do you mean did I reset the PRAM (cmd+shft+R)? - I couldn't -the Mac didn't want to start any more!
I removed the new memory to put it back as it was and it still didnt want to work, so I set it aside for the moment - I wasnt prepared for that problem. I have upgraded most of my Macs in the past but never had this happen. Somehow the Memory units seem to have stuffed the Mac. Any thoughts that might provide a way forward?
