[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1358167, member: 46727"] There's something wrong with memory if what you stated here is correct. Here's why: Every MacBook and MacBook Pro leaves the factory with the memory slots populated. No empty slots. (different story for iMac) Given that your MacBook Pro shows 2 GB of memory, I would suspect that each slot (there are only two) is populated with a 2 GB module. Your MacBook Pro came with 4 GB installed. That tells me you either have a dead slot or one of the modules is not functioning. Hence the slow speeds. I just double checked with MacTracker and that's correct. You might want to open your MacBook Pro and physically check to see what memory is installed. You don't have to pull it, just give it a visual. Let us know and we can go from there. [/QUOTE]
