Do you have any SIMMs installed as well as the DIMMs? If so, remove all SIMMs. Make sure you are using a quantity of 2 64MB 15 nanosecond unbuffered 3.3 volt 66 megahertz SDRAM DIMMS. These DIMMs should have 8 chips on each side of the DIMM. If you are working with 4 chip per side DIMMs, it is hit or miss as to whether they will work. You might check with: Hypertech Computers 9824 West 87th Street Overland Park, KS 66212 913-341-7735 and ask for Victor (Owner & very knowledgeable) I hope this helps. BTW: 66 Mhz DIMMs are real hard to find these days....

Pick up a couple of 64mb EDO DIMMs and you'll be just happy as a clam. Actually this sounds like it might be it. I haven't got far enough to worry about whether Linux sees the memory -- the BIOS never does. I yanked out one of the 64MB sticks and now it sees 16MB. (Down from 32Mb with (2) 64's.)
