[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1105092, member: 56379"] Thanks for that detail. It's a very odd situation you have with this 512 ram stick you have. I'm going to suggest a few things: 1. 128meg of motherboard ram + 256 meg = 384meg. Are you 100% sure that this stick of ram you have isn't a 256 meg stick of ram rather than 512meg? 2. If you truly do have a 512meg stick of ram...maybe it is defective in some way...and only half of the ram on it is registering. Again 128meg logic board ram + 256 = 384meg. 3. Where did this 512meg stick of ram come from? Is it definitely ram compatible with Macintosh computers? If not...this could be the trouble as well. FYI (in case you didn't know), you could (if you wanted to)...upgrade this computer to 1152 megabyte (128 motherboard ram + 1 gig stick of ram). HTH, - Nick [/QUOTE]
