Friday, I went from 8 Megs to 20 Megs of RAM - from eight 1 Meg sims to four 4 Meg and four 1 Meg sims. I've got eight 30 pin slots. Well, the problem is that my system now crawls - like it is only recognizine the four 1 Meg sims. I just installed FreeBSD, so I assume I've got the latest version. I didn't think that there was anything I had to do in addition to ploping in the sims. Any ideas? Thanks, Dean
