hiphop2009 SG i fixed anpther 256MB SDRAM pc133 inside my desktop, which means now currently is 512MB (256x2). but windows XP doesnt seems to detect my RAM, while CPUZ and PC wizard can detect. how ar?
hiphop2009 SG wad i mean was, it can only detect one piece, which is 256. it is already 5 years. 1Ghz celeron.
ndmmxiaomayi SG No idea what's happening, although I suspect it's the Intel chip. Intel can be very sensitive at times. Can you try swapping the RAM piece around the different slots and see if it works?
hiphop2009 SG dunnoe leh. switched liao. still the same prob. CPUZ detect as 512 while windows xp only recognise it as 256. is it because of a faulty RAM slot?
ndmmxiaomayi SG Couldn't be, faulty RAM slot I don't think it will even show up. And I doubt at 5 years ago that the integrated graphics card can go up to as high as 256MB... When the computer boots up, what's the amount of RAM shown?
hiphop2009 SG i read my motherboard user manual and it says can support up to 1.5GB of RAM. and my graphic card is AGP4X ATI radeon 9600, so it is nt integrated graphic card. it is shown as 256.....
hiphop2009 SG hey mayi problem solved liao. i koop my gf desktop's 2x256 SDRAM (identical ones) den put inside den can liao. i think is because of two different RAM dat i put in (mine are two different ones)...
ndmmxiaomayi SG Old doesn't matter, because it works. If even at POST it shows 256MB... that means one of the RAM sticks is going undetected... might be a false detection with CPU-Z and PC Wizard.
ndmmxiaomayi SG Like this also got? First time I see such things... well... anyway, Intel is famous for anything that doesn't work...
