My 2.3 dual CPU G5 is super picky about RAM. I had to reseat RAM and
restart about 30x to get 4 pairs in all 8 slots to recognize
simultaneously. It took hours. I got one pair to recognize, then
shutdown and added a new pair until I got two pairs, then added a
third pair, and finally a fourth pair. VERY frustrating experience. I
haven't touched the RAM since then, a couple years ago. I've got 6GB
total as 4x1GB and 4x512MB. I've now got four more 1GB sticks so I
could upgrade to the 8GB max but I'm too chicken to risk the likely
hassles for only 2GB extra. Someday I intend to add the extra RAM,
just not now. I'd say ... keep trying ... with crossed fingers.
