I had been running on 2x256 for about the last year.
I went and bought another 512 yesterday to get it to 1 gig ramm.
Computer counts up all memory and says it's good at post.
Computer will not however boot the OS. I run linux, and even though i know it isn't nessasary, i went throught the trouble of reinstalling linux. It got to the part where it goes to write to the HD and the whole system freezes.
Odd... So i went and put in a Win 2k cd to see if it was a problem with linux. It gets to the part where it checks system specs, and it crashes.
I thought my HD was fried. I took out one of the 256 dimm's and everything is good in the world. OS installed just fine.
Put the 256 back in, to take it back to 1 gig mem after the os is installed, and it crashes. Happens with either OS...
So i have a 256 in slot 1 and a 512 in slot 3 and another 256 sitting here looking at me.
What is the trick? I have the Rev 1 MB, and have never liked it. This is just another reason...
