    A description of any logo would have helped!  I *think* these are
Fujitsu parts.  If so the DIMMs are very probably 128MB.

  This is the problem I think.  This is a TX board, and it is rare for
these boards to understand 'high-density' DIMMs.  This means that
DIMMs have to be 32MB or under for them to be recognised.

   In addition, in general, fitting more than 64MB to a TX board is
liable to cause it to slow down by some amount.  TX boards are normaly
only capable of cacheing up to 64MB.

   Regards,
         Harry.
