My computer was running very slowly so i decided to do a virus scan and nothing came up on that so I'm guessing my ram is too low to run the programs i have. I opened up the computer and took out the stick of ram thats in there to check what size and speed it is. I then put the ram back in and now when I try to power up the computer I get a blue screen saying new hardware is not compatible. It's a dell inspirion 3000

Hi and welcome to the forums!

First, let's start with some basic info. What OS is running on your computer? Whats' your hard drive size? How much ram is available on your computer? What is your processor speed?

I know that seems like a bunch of questions to fire at you, but getting basic info about your system is important.

Let me know what you have and we will work from there.

Let me know if you have any questions.
