Hard to say without knowing the specs on the RAM. My guess, from what I saw when I was looking for RAM for my DA, is that you get the high density RAM, where the DA needs low density. The DA needs RAM that fits the following specs: Specs: SDRAM, PC133 CL=3 Unbuffered Non-parity 133MHz 3.3V 64Meg x 64 / 32x8 Many of the cheaper sticks are not 64M x 64. Where did you get the RAM and is there anything on the sticks that describe a type/model? -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
