Ok, I finally got my computer to boot preperly with the new RAM installed, but windows fails to recognize it. I added 128mb of 100mhz SDRAM to the 128mb that I already had. When booting, the computer detects the new ram, but windows still only sees the original 128mb. I took a look through the windows support page, but it did not solve the problem.

Yeah that's the one I checked.
I think I'm gonna try to update the BIOS.
The motherboard is an AMI M761zx.
