    In the past day, my computer has decided it will not boot and will display t
    he post code 2a. When I looked up post code 2a it read.."Initializes diff
    erent devices through DIM."

    I do not know how to fix this problem and basically have no idea what that m
    eans. Can anyone give me any further help? Thanks so much.

    if you've had an upgrade:
    your motherbard either doesnt support the two ram sticks together or a ram stick isnt supported, so if you have 2 or more sticks only use one or 2 of the same manufacture codes stick of ram(s)

    if this has happend out of the blue:
    check ram is seated properly, if they are a ram stick may be faulty, arrange the sticks taking one stick out at a time untill you find the faulty one, its a good idea to use the same manufacture and model pair of ram sticks
