Yes,
1. Remove one stick of ram, boot the computer.
2. Did it boot successfully?
3. If yes, shutdown and replace the stick of ram with the other stick of
ram.
If no, shutdown and try the other stick of ram.
4. Boot the computer.
5. Did it boot successfully?
6. If yes, shutdown and install both sticks of ram and boot computer.
7. Did it boot successfully?
8. If yes, I have no idea why it miraculously works now.
9. If it is not successful, your sticks of ram are not the same and are not
compatible.
10. Replace the stick of ram of your choice and boot computer.
11. If successful, leave it and resign yourself to the fact you cannot use
both sticks of ram on this computer.
12. If not successful replace the ram with the other stick and boot
computer.
13. If successful, leave it and resign yourself to the fact you cannot use
both sticks of ram on this computer.
14. If not successful, your screwed and should have listened to the people
that first gave you the advice you didn't believe.
