I plead ignorance. The Power Computing specs for my PowerTower 180e said max RAM was 256 MB, but I supposed that was because 128 MB DIMMs didn't exist in 1997 (just a guess, really). But in fact, I've two 128 MB DIMMs in there now, plus a pair of 64 MB, for a total of 384. Perhaps the limitation on the PowerBase is that one RAM slot is limited to 32 MB, but perhaps the other two aren't (now I'm really guessing)? Maybe the thing to do would be to try two and see what happens. BTW, some posters to this list report varying results with bigger-than-spec RAM. It's worked for me in both a PowerTower and PowerCenterPro, although curiously, the PowerTower didn't seem to like the new RAM until I ran TechToolPro. Happened that way twice. <shrug> -- Power Computing is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and... 123Inkjets.com <http://lowendmac.com/ad/123inkjets.html> Support Low End Mac <http://lowendmac.com/lists/support.html> Power Computing list info: <http://lowendmac.com/power/list.html> Send list messages to: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For digest mode, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subscription questions: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> List archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/powercomputing%40mail.maclaunch.com/> Using a Macintosh?
