i installed a 128mb stick and a 64 mb stick to the 128mb i already had. i have a compaq persario 5170 with a intel pentium II processor 347 mhz.
i also have windows xp home edition. Cpu-z found all of the new ram. Also, when i started up my computer, it did a memory test. it also found all the ram. when i looked in msconfig in BOOT.INI in advanced options, the MAXMEM was 128 and thats all it could go. PLEASE HELP!!!!


-Thanks in advance
