thanks a lot,

also for the correction 512 Mb is in fact 64 MB :-)

Andrea


Hopefully you mean that 512 MB high density RAM is *256 MB *on you Beige G3 and that someone anal corrected your misuse of "Mb" for Megabytes when it is actually "MB" (even though we all knew what you meant). That is what today's lesson taught us.

Having said that, no, I have not tried 512 MB modules.
I have, and they are read as 256.

I've seen this stated several times before "they are read as 256." Does this mean they are only utilized by the system as 256MB (half the RAM) OR that if you look in ASP that's how it will appear but you still get the full RAM operation?

No, only half the ram is seen by the system, and this is a recipe for instability. Beige G3's cannot utilize the high-density ram on the bigger sticks.
