unfortunately, you probably don't. Apple only tested these units with 128MB chips. it's hard to test with RAM that didn't exist at the time. ^.^; per Apple, the max tested RAM is 192MB. Most people have found that 512MB (total) works if configured with 2 256MB chips. I'm not aware of anyone reporting a 512MB chip being completely recognized. -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
