Re: Vista Home Premium 32bit 4 gig Ram problem

Here's a few things to check in no particular order


are you sure they are 1G modules and not 512K modules

make sure the memory modules have the same speed etc.

if you bought matched 1G modules (which you should have done) ensure they
are properly placed in the mobo, usually in alternate slots

how much memory does the BIOS report

try turning off memory interleaving
