Okay first of all my pc is is some old HP pavilion crap but I need it for school. Currently I have 3 ram sticks installed in the mobo which is 1.5GB (3x 512mb smh), but when I try to add another 512mb ram that is working it does not want to turn on. All Ram slots and RAMs are working perfectly they were tested. When i power on the PC with the 4x512mb rams there are 3 beeps I think and a red light. Please help if you can.

btw IDK if its HP pavilion tbh but it looks like this but only the specs are worse: Intel Core 2 Vpro is the cpu thats all I know
