Exactly, but I didn't manage to get the 2x512MB modules useable in my machine. In fact, sometimes the machine wouldn't even POST with the two modules, but as soon as I removed any one of them, the machine was back to normal. > I just suggested removing only one 256MB module and testing with 2 x > 512MB. Which on the one hand wouldn't be that bad as only having > 512MB, and on the other hand just for a test... Right now, I am using 512 + 256 running at PC100 speeds, with latencies all set to 3-3-3. Now, it seems to run stably, but is slower than what I would like it to run, of course. I will still keep trying some combinations, but some of them seem definitely ruled out (like having both 512 MB modules at the same time).
