Do you have to do anything to bios? My Dell D620 will not boot when i install this memory. Updated bios to A10, the latest.

Maybe one of the memory modules is bad. Remove both modules (slot A under keyboard and slot b on the bottom of the laptop), and install each module, one at a time in slot A (under keyboard) and verify that the BIOS recognizes the memory and the system boots.

I also installed this memory in 2 different D620 laptops and I didn't have to do anything in the Bios. the memory was just recognized and worked great. maybe you got a bad one or something else (like the keyboard cable) got disconnected when you installed it? Good luck John!

Mine worked like a champ, but I don't have a dell, it was built from scratch. Make sure the motherboard is compatible. There are programs on the internet that will give you a breakdown of all the inner parts.

What do they mean by updating BIOS. Is this the kind of setup you spend long frustrating hours on? Should I opt for a different brand/model (suggestions?)?

I had that same problem, and it turned out I needed a new motherboard. You should call Dell.

You can definitely do it afterwards cuz that's what I've done. Still I haven't updated my BIOS yet, works fine...

I just finished downloading the latest bios from ASUS Support and after opening the BIOS and renaming it (forgot the name) then I downloaded the BIOS file to a flash drive. Selected the NEW BIOS file and then followed the instructions.

You may not have to even worry about the bios. I upgraded from an AMD A6 to this cpu and didn't have to change bios at all. Once I had the cpu installed and the cpu fan connected. ( make sure of this) The CPU set itself up. All I did was turn on the laptop, let it go threw start up, which took a few more seconds than normal. Once windows came up that was it. It is still a good idea to go in and check system processor to make sure it says AMD A10-4600m

Sorry for the late reply, but I have no idea about this. I'd suggest contacting Dell. Good luck in finding your answer!

Hard to say. Manufacturers usually have a list of memory modules that have been tested and verified to work with the motherboard. I usually only install memory that is on these lists. Since the computer is made by Dell they would be the best ones to check with. They should have a munual available online. Or you can try calling them and asking which modules are compatible. Unfortunately systems that are made by Dell and similar companies often use proprietary motherboards and require very specific (and often more expensive) memory types.

I dont see how the bios is relevant, if it is not posting something is dead. Start with memory, switch slots eventually try stick individually if there is more than one. If u are using a kaveri it should post with no bios update since the chipset is for kaveri, if using richland or trinity also

I'm 99% sure that it needs a bios update to run it. Its super easy to do though, just follow the instructions in the manual.

No. Upon a 2 second google search i see the D620 has these specs for RAM: Min: 512MB DDR2 shared1 533 or 667MHzMax: 4GB2 DDR2 shared1 533 or 667MHz4GB New memory for Dell Latitude D620 D630 D820 DDR2 That is the best you can put into your laptop. I suggest you just save up and get a new computer, that things very old and not worth upgrading.

I have an A10-6800k and run good, if u want when u have all the system installed and running, update the bios for better performance... I recommend that!

So I think I am miss understanding. You are having a Graphics Card Issue. Would you like the Bios from the Graphics card? can you please explain a little more in depth exactly what you are trying to do?

There wasn't an option on this particular [Dell D620/D630] Notebook for 800MHz. The only options were 533MHz or 667MHz so I took the 667MHz. Not sure what the specs on this particular memory is but I went with the 667MHz version and it works fine. I hope that helps!!!

It should work according to the specs of this motherboard. I have this and no problems. When do you get the beeps? Before or after post? At the point of turning on the computer? Is this a new motherboard? Try removing everything but ram, cpu and video card. Go from there. If it beeps again check to make sure the ram is seated correctly. Is the cpu seated correctly? Any bent pins? Installed correctly?

Short answer is no. That machine's BIOS will not recognize it. I read some posts at the Dell forums and the most powerful compatible processor is a Pentuim D 3.4ghz"-pentium d 3.4 ghz 945 worked in the gx620 usff with bios a11...that is max for this machine the 3.6 and higher won't work"

No bios change for me. However, that could depend on your system and whether or not you're already using a card instead of the motherboard. But I believe that Windows 8.1 handles the video drivers and such so no bios change should be needed.
