I remember trying this when I upgraded to 20 MB a while ago and the 4 ] additional MB weren't recognized till I swapped the banks... I already did this, cause I had the same problem as you metioned when updating my other box to 20 Mb, but the effect was still the same: The machine only recognized the 256k simms with a total capacity of 1 Mb. I think this is simply a problem of the motherboard, since I had these 256k simms installed on another machine (dx2/66) and this machine recognized the total of 5 Mb. Anyway... I wont bother about 1 Meg of additional memory :-> Regards, mickey -- (__) (@@) Andreas S.
