I have a Gateway Performance 800 which has 3 memory slots with one slot
holding a single module containing 128MBytes. I bought 2 x 256MB DIMM
modules from my local store, but they don't seem to be working properly. The
post shows numbers like "512MB, "152MB", and "36MB", but the bios shows the
2 x 256MB modules. That said, the PC won't make it to the splash screen of
Win XP Pro. It hangs and I have to power off then on again. Does anyone know
what the maximum amount of ram is which I can add to this machine? Also, how
do I know if the ram is working or not? Can this system take DDR modules? I
am totally confused. Any assistance appreciated.
