I believe I have it in right but it's not showing up.
My G5 is VERY picky about how the RAM is seated. In my experience, all
computers that require matched sets are difficult. I've reseated and restarted
my G5 perhaps 18-20 times before, moving the sticks in matched slots as
required, but in different slots. As soon as the all were recognized, no
problems whatsoever. You may want to consider pressing the CUDA reset, I don't
think this is required.
I had a real problem with my G5 after replacing the heat sink. Half the RAM was
not reporting and weird things on the system were happening. Anyway I took out
all eight sticks keeping track of the pairs. I spray cleaned all the slots and
the ram and installed in pairs. Afterwards all the RAM showed up and the system
was working right again. It had me worried that my logicboard was history.
What did you use for spray cleaning?
I rearranged the RAM & 2 original sticks in the third position are not
working & the new sticks in the first slots are not working.
Basically, anything I touch isn't working
