    I recently ordered
    Mushkin Enhanced Blackline 16GB (2 x 8G) 204-Pin DDR3 SO-DIMM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Laptop Memory Model 997067 - Newegg.com
    to upgrade ram on DELL M4800.

    When installed it doesn't let the Laptop to boot. Newegg says this is compatible but the product doesn't.I'm sure I installed it properly. By any chance,did I receive a defective product ? or is the product incompatible unlike Newegg's Memory finder suggestion ?

    Newegg charges $15 restocking fee, so I would like to make sure i'm not doing something wrong before before returning it.

    I'm pretty sure you need DDR3L (1.35 V) memory, since Haswell does not support DDR (1.5 V).
