SYMPTOMS: THE PERFORMANCE TAB IN SYSTEM PROPERTIES REPORTS DIFFERENT AMOUNT OF MEMORY THAN IS INSTALLED.
I HAD 128MB MEMORY CARD AND RECENTLY I'VE BOUGHT A NEW ONE OF 512MB, BUT WHEN I INSERT IT IN SLOT 1 THE COMPUTER DOESN'T WANT TO BOOT UP, SO I SWITCH THE CARD AND INSERT THE NEW 512MB MEMORY IN SLOT 0 AND THE OLD ONE TO SLOT 1, THE COMPUTER SEEMS TO WORK FINE, HOWEVER THE AMOUNT DISPLAYED IN WINDOWS IS 320MB(?). WHEN I LEAVE THE 512MB CARD ALONE IN SLOT 0- WINDOWS RECOGNISES ONLY 192MB OF IT.
CPU CHARACTERISTICS: MY CPU COMES WITH AMD DURON PROCESSOR AND SUPPORTS 266 MHZ FRONT-SIDE BUS.
MEMORY SUPPORT: TWO 184-PIN DIMM SOCKETS FOR DDR MEMORY MODULES, SUPPORT DDR 266MHZ MEMORY BUS AND MAXIMUM INSTALLED MEMORY IS 1GB.
I HAVE NO IDEA OF HOW TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM, SO I WILL TRULY APPRECIATE ANY KIND OF HELP.
THANX |
