Hi Alcommm,
Dell Inspiron N4030 supports only DDR3 1333 MHZ memory.
Hence the old 2GB Memory is being supported because its a DDR3 1333 MHZ memory.
I would suggest you have a DDR3 1333 MHZ memory installed on the system.
Hope this helps.

Hi Alcommm,
I would suggest that you follow the steps mentioned below and check if the system switches ON.
Then try installing the memory in one slot at a time and check if the issue with any particular memory slot. Also try using a different memory stick and check as this will help us isolate the issue if its with the memory or the memory stick.
Let us know your findings.

I tried all steps and got a blue screen error IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
STOP:0X0000000A
my old 2GB ram works fine in both slots
the original module is DDR3-10600
Thanks,
