Hi. Run memtest 86 on that new stick of ram. And then, remove it and see what comes up. Its completely possible you got a bogus stick
If you want to know the make and type of your mobo register at the motherboards.org forum and go to "MOBO ID". Aussie over there is the best.
What type of OS? 98? 2k? 95? OS/2? RH? etc..Comment

Remove the 64MB stick and try testing again.(\__/) 07/07/1937 - Never forget

What?Comment

Your info says it can handle the 128MB sticks but I wonder about the effect of the 64MB stick in the first slot. Put one 128MB stick in slot one and re-boot . If it reads as 64MB you're screwed. If that happens it's worth a look in the bios to see if there is a setting you have to change first before installing 128MB sticks (I dont know why you would need to do that but its worth a look). If all else fails, read the motherboard manual.We need seperate human-only games for MP/PBEM that dont include the over-simplifications required to have a good AI

That's why I suggested testing with the 64MB RAM stick removed, it might somehow cause the mobo to treat all the sticks as 64MB.(\__/) 07/07/1937 - Never forget

Most manuals either have only the most trivial info or have the important bios stuff written in a language you can only read when you are experienced enough to not need it.

Is sticks of PC-100 and PC-133 mixed???
Waiting for confirmation...Comment
-
I don't see how mixing could be causing this problem - he tried each one seperately and they were still detected as 64mb.I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).Comment
-
Yes but still. Bye inserting the PC-100 you slow down the PC-133 to PC-100 speed
And as for mixing and having them show. Yes it does.Comment
-
The m/b he has is limited to pc-100 anyway (as said in his first post) so mixing doesn't have any effect for him.I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).Comment

ok.
your right
Just wanted to get that out of the way. Had we been talking of DDR, PC2100 w/ PC 2700. Then that wouldnt of worked aswell.
hmmm...try asking a few other forums. These guys are good
