Have a DELL Dimension 4600 which I have been adding RAM to.
Original machine had 2no. 256 and a few weeks ago I put a new 512 into slot three with no problems. On boot up machine showed 1GB.
Recently purchased 1Gb and tried to install...didn't register it at all. Tried it by itself, with other chipsets etc etc, but still no luck. Returned said item as faulty as a friend gave me a 256 and it was recognised by the system.
Ran a check on crucial for my system and it notes all slots can have 1GB in them so very strange.
Got a new 1GB RAM today (21st July 2007) and have installed with same result as previously...just not recognising it.
Anyone got any ideas/tips/hints/solutions for me...and before you say it...yes I have checked they are all properly seated.
Many thanks in advance of replies.
