I have an HP Pavillion dv8305 us and just upgraded the memory from 512 to 2Gig. Now that the new memory is in place the operating system (XP) will not boot up. I keep getting recycled back to the black and white screen where I have the option to start Windows in Safe Mode, Normal Mode, Last Good Configuration, etc.

Any thoughts?

THANKS!
