Hi John, The max size of ram for the c500 are 64mb.
I don't know why, but this question has come up lots of times on the list. If you installed them and they were OK, they would only show up as 64mb each. Sadly the max ram for the machine is 144mb. regards, Ian B (UK) C500, G3 P-Jolt320, 112mbRAM, OS9.1, 2GbHD, 2 x 9GbExtHD, Zip250SCSI, Astra610S, StyleWriter2500, SWANN56KModem - - - - - - - - - - - - - John Baxendale wrote: > Hi, > > Long time lurker on this list and owner of 2 SuperMac C500's running > YellowDog Linux! > > Both my machines are getting a bit low on ram and I'd ideally like to > upgrade them, these chips seem to be getting harder to come by but I've > managed to find a couple of 128Meg chips for sale, I'm not entirely sure > whether the C500 will accept 128Meg chips though - none of the docs I've > found on the web mention 128, most stop at 64... > > The chip's spec is: "128MB 168 Pin Mac 5v DIMM 60 NS 4K EDO (2K per bank)" > which sounds to be right, has anyone used a similar chip ?
