Subject: Re: Upgrade LC475 From: stew <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
I've always wanted to max out the RAM but have been uncertain as to what max is. 32 Mb per Apple specs but as one list member has reported, on this very list, has used more.
I have installed 128 + 4 MB of RAM in the Q605/LC/P475/6. I used a pair of Single Bank 64 MB SIMMs in a SIMMverter which is a card that converts one SIMM slot into two. Grand total of 132 MB of usable RAM. Of course, I couldn't close the case with the SIMMverter card installed. :-)
I think someone else has reported that a single 128 MB SIMM works. Those can be hard to find.
Installing just a single 64 MB SIMM in the slot also worked giving 68 MB of RAM total. One thing to keep in mind is that the 64 MB SIMM must be Single Bank, not Dual Bank. At least, that was my experience. If your memory seller doesn't know what that means, find a different memory seller, preferably one who will let you exchange it if it doesn't work.
