[QUOTE="harryb2448, post: 1616463, member: 42497"] As a suggestion, remove both memory cages, and pop the 2 x 4GB Crucial modules in positions one and two as the matched pair. Place in Riser A and boot and see if all is well. If it runs on the 8GB I would leave it at that until you can get 2 more 4GB modules from Crucial. If there is no boot, try popping the cage in Riser B. As Mac Pro 1.1's are now +8 years of age, it is not unknown for the risers, and cages, to fail. Do not think the 512MB worth taking up space, and the less said about Kingston gear in a Mac the better. [/QUOTE]
