Finally we're getting somewhere. The entire length of this thread I was assuming you were seeing 4GB at POST. You never stated otherwise, and ASSURED us the system had 4GB of RAM. It doesn't. There are 4GB of DIMMs apparently installed, but that's much different than the "system having 4GB". What you have is mismatched memory. Read the DIMM specs in that manual PDF. The board supports DDR 200/266, and supports single and double sided DIMMs, BUT not in all density (DIMM size) and frequency combinations. I.e. when all 4 slots are filled you must have a specific combination of DIMM sizes and "sidedness" for the board to recognize and use all 4GB. Read the manual and look at all 4 of those DIMMs and you'll identify the problem. The fix will require that you acquire some different memory, either 2 or all 4 of the sticks. -- Stan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
