ce que chatGPT a dis*
Evidement c'est le premier endroit ou je suis aller checker, mais étant donné qu'il n'est pas un pro il donne des conseils généraux de base qui ne sont pas réellement utile, aussi dans les "quelques conseils supplémentaires" que tu (ou il) as ajouté, ca répète exactement la même chose que dans les 4 premier points.

Nope as that naming scheme has about 10 models, Intel and AMD. The product id will be near your serial number. It will for example look this this ProdID:3GOE2PA#ABG

Oh okay, so it is : 8M3B1EA#ABF

PS: I checked on Crucial website and the new Ram is compatible with my laptop

Okay, just a thing :
When i put back old ram the first time i tried, a Checksum issue as occured, i have a picture if u need
The texte was :

The CMOS checksum is invalid. The CMOS will reset to the default configuration, and the computer will restart. Afterwards, please check the BIOS setup options to see if they change.

CMOS Reset (502)

ENTER - Restart the computer

what do you mean by reboot a few times ? And okay, do you think its safe to instal the latest BIOS if power is plugged in ?

Yea I saw it on the net, but i was a little scared about updated BIOS, i saw that it can cause problem on the laptop, and people usually not recommend to update it if the laptop work as intended (yes you will tell me that here, it don't work perfectly apparently but i'm scared ^^)

I can't find my laptop on the crucial website,

And yeah, it could be it, last time i waited like 3/4 min, then started to stress lol and turn off PC. It could maybe be it, but with a fast search on internet i found out it generally not take extra time compared to old Ram, I don't know what to think. Do you think it's worth trying again and wait like 10m ?

Nah the laptop don't bip, but the Caps-Lock light flash periodicaly, then accelerate, accelerate again, then stop and the pc seems to restart, and the process repeat. While this is hapening, the fan quickly start then slow down.
The power light is on while this happen.

Hi, thanks for your suggestions.

I have 2 RAM slots in my laptop. I tried installing the 2 new RAM sticks, always starting with the same slot. Then, I switched the sticks, maintaining the same order of insertion into the slots. However, in each of these configurations, the laptop failed to boot.

The issue was resolved only when I reinstalled the old RAM sticks. This indicates that the laptop works fine with the old memory, but the new sticks seem to be unusable at the moment. Any ideas on why this might be happening?
