Computer: HP 7970
Memory newly installed:
1 set of 128mb RDRAMS
1 set 256mb RDRAMS (768 mb total).
After having installed the new memory modules, I plugged in my computer and pressed the power button. A loud noise came from inside the computer and I smelled something electrical burning. The computer did not start. Now, when I attempt to start my computer, it does absolutely nothing. No lights on the case, no movement of fans, no attempt to boot.
* Might it simply be my power supply, or could it be something else?
* Is my computer fried, or might it be ok if I replace the power supply?
* Did my installation of the memory have anything to do with this problem?
