[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1628303, member: 175845"] Well, maybe the rules for adding RAM chips is similar to the old SCSI rules: Rule 1: All connections must be terminated Rule 2: If it doesn't work, ignore Rule 1. But on the serious side, have a check at the xlr8yourmac.com site, a good source of Mac fixit stuff and specifically this article: [url=http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/tips/Mac_Pro_FBdimm_Pairing.html]Mac Pro FB-Dimm Pairing Guide/Tests (w/mixed 1GB, 2GB and 4GB pairs)[/url] And if still not enough, this provides lots of possible solution hits: [url]https://www.google.ca/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=adding+2+2Gb's+and+2+1Gb's+to+Mac+Pro&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&gfe_rd=cr&ei=uh-TVKHYMbjQ-AOJ_YCQDA[/url] Good luck, but the xlr8yourmac.com article looks promising. ;) [/QUOTE]
