Hey guys. I bought a Gigabyte motherboard. Not top of the line, but it's good for what I need. GA-8S661FXMP-RZ. Something like that(I'm not at home right now).
I bought 1 stick of Kingston 512mb Pc3200 ram. Also have 1 512mb pc3200 samsung stick. It only detects 512mb ram.
I thought maybe the samsung stick isn't compatable..I bought anmother Kingston 512 mb pc3200 stick. Still the same issue. I have a 250 Watt power supply. Could that be insufficient? P4 2.8GHZ HT CPU.
My Bios is fully updated. I have no idea what's going on. Could it be that my ram is working, but only shows up as 512? Are there any programs to download that show the status of your comp? Like the temp, howmuch memory u have, etc..
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
