Hey

I bought RAM off eBay, it said 2x512mb hynix RAM.

Exactlly the same specs as I need for my iMac.

I bought it and recieved today.

But when I insert them, only 1 RAM Stick is recognised (so only 512mb)

Does anyone know why its only recognizing ONE 512mb?

Theyre both the same spec ram as it says, on the white label..

If anyone can help thatll be good!

Thanks.

Haha. The most awkward thing about installing RAM on an iMac is that the stand doesn't lift enough out of the way. I have big hands, so I really had a problem.
