I just installed this 1gig Kingston HyperX ram KHX3200 into my custom computer running windows XP SP2 with all the updates. I pulled out my existing 512 to make sure both memory chips were the same and they would go in the right slots. Existing slot was dusty, so i cleaned it with a clean cloth. Installed existing ram and new ram in correct places, then booted up only to receive the following error:
Explorer.exe - Application Error
Application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000006). Click on OK to terminate application.
Then all I can do is look at my desktop background and use the task manager.
The BIOS recognizes the amount of ram i have installed (even when i swap one out) but windows does not start properly. I have never had any virus problems on this comp.
Is there something I can do without reinstalling windows XP or repairing it? The only solutions I've found online for these application errors involve destructive solutions, which I'm not ready to undergo.
Please help.
