- Power Mac G5 Quad 2.5GHz 2GB Mem
Hello.
My PowerMac G5 originally had four 512mb DDR2 SDRAM PC2-4200. Apple Brand making 2g total.
I wanted to upgrade my memory and I bought two 1g Kingston DDR2 SDRAM PC2-4200. 1.8v from Mac Mall.
After installing the memory, (1g memory in slot 0,1 and four 512bm in 2,3,4,5)
However, during the first boot up, I felt it was actually little bit slower than before the upgrade, but I thought it was just me.
It's been about two weeks and I had about 5 critical crashes.
Before the upgrade, I had maybe 2 crashes in nearly two years.
I just had (like 10min ago) another crash when I was watching a video from YouTube and running Roxio Toast.
I removed two 1g memory that I added and I could notice my G5 is faster even just opening the safari.
Now.. please.. what did I do wrong? or what do you guys think is the problem?
The system profiler status for my memories were "OK" even with the new memory chips in...
help....!
