Have you checked to make sure you motherboard will support a 128MB
stick? Maybe the 64Mb stick is all it will support...

planet usenet earth spoke out cries of help with the following words:

>I recently put together an AOPEN AX3S based system where I bought all the
>parts from a dealer in Brisbane. I also bought from him  a stick of 128 Meg
>of Pc133 (Kingmax) memory.
>
>The memory stick would not work - so I bought a cheaper 64 meg stick from
>another dealer and this worked fine.
>
>Took the 128 meg stick back to the original dealer and got it replaced with
>2x64 meg sticks ---  BUT these will not work either.  No matter whether I
>use them singly or in any combination ---only the 64 meg stick from the
>second dealer will work.
>
>Now, am I missing something here -is it possible that 3 sticks from this
>dealer can be bad??
>
>Thanks
