I upgraded from 16 to 32Mb but although the bios reports the added memory on boot, FreeBSD can't see it. I tried swapping simms and simm types to no avail. However much memory I add, and in whatever configuration, FreeBSD can't see more than 16Mb. Anything else I can try, or is it just a wierdness of the Compaq motherboard. Thanks for any help you can give.
