RAM what type? Must the same speed/type. Cannot mix.

My old Dell L502X also kept hanging and crashing. Upon inspection, the previous owner installed both 4GB PC3-8500 and 4GB PC3-1333 sticks. I replaced both with PC3-1333 sticks and no more hanging or crashing.

I think RAM type should be no problem? Just diff in term of brand and size

Hard to say. Some laptops don't like it.

Try taking out the 2GB stick.

Works for me.

8500 vs 10660 big difference if the mobo cannot handle it.
