On last year's sunday it was tesseract and I still can't find that year.

My friend has Acer Aspire TimelineX 5820TG which got 3GB of memory which is not enough for the software she works on, so she decides for an upgrade - 2x Kingston SODIMM 4GB DDR3 1600 CL11 Non-ECC SR X8 KVR16S11S8/4 (should work for her notebook in my opinion). When she takes the notebook to the shop, the seller tells her they might not work (? how ?). They test the modules in her notebook and it boots to BIOS instead of doing anything else, the seller concludes it won't work.

Can anybody tell me what might be wrong with it? I haven't built / helped with anything that has DDR3, not sure what can go wrong here.

The only information I can get about memory for this notebook does not come from

Much sad.

Learned it the hard way.
