Interleaving won't work. From my experience: if you've got PC133 and PC100 RAM DIMMs (the 64 and 128 are probably PC100s, just like mine) install the PC133s in the first slots from the left. I got strange errors when booting OS 9.x (contact your system administrator) when I installed PC133 after PC100, after I installed PC133 RAM before the PC100 it worked. Just my 2 cents. * * -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
