[QUOTE="Iatros55, post: 1563483, member: 213303"] I don't think the iMac will run with only one stick. I think you should always use two, in slots 0. This has to do with the data paths on the mother board. Additional memory should go into slots 1, again as a pair. The iMac OS will check your memory, as well as Onyx and Tinkertool apps. If your iMac will boot, go to the Apple symbol in the upper left corner, and click on it. Select 'About This Mac' to obtain system info. There should be 4 tabs, one of which is memory, and that one will at least show you what you have in each slot. You can get more details by selecting 'System Report' and running that app. Your best bet may be just obtaining more memory modules from OWC...Other World Computing, aka MacSales.com. Best wishes on solving this problem. [/QUOTE]
