Hi!
A strange thing is happening with my RAM. I tried to upgrade my
computer's RAM by adding another 512 MB SDRAM 133 modul. The system
didn't recognized it, I guess because of incompatibility between two
modules. They are the same type (512 MB SDRAM 133), but not from the
same manufacturer.
I read on the net that the usual problem in that case is in
incompatibility with two RAM modules.
OK, so I put the other module out, and then the system saw just half of
the original RAM, which worked just ok!
I tried 3 different modules of RAM (all 512 MB SDRAM 133, from
different manufacturers), and it's the same story, there is only half
of the size of RAM being recognized.
I can understand the incompatibility issue, but why isn't the old RAM
working as it used to (now it's 256 instead of 512 MB)?
It's an older computer (CPU - Celeron 600, Motherboard - FIC FA13, BIOS
- Award Modullar VAC44, OS - Win XP SP2) but it was working just fine
untill now.
Can anybody help me?
