I've searched all the topics reasonable, nothing found like this... Got a Compaq Evo D510c. 2.4 g. Pen_IV. w/2 (1g) sticks of DDR2100 (non-ECC) RAM - but PC it is reading and reports only 1.5 gigs on board???
(oem manual specs D510c will take 2 gigs). Have chked. BIOS & run tests and the 1.5 gigs reported looks to be accurate. What brought this issue up now is some video processing I'm having to do that is pretty
resource greedy and the machine is complaining about anemic 'memory'. Not to have launched a research study --- I have done a little research on the PC & RAM i'm using and nothing like "proprietary" type mem. warnings have come up.
I've tried Compaq support for their input but since the HP takeover; Compaq's (once) A#1 rated tech support has sort'a been pushed to the back row I guess.
The problem was never a
"come-n-go" thing. It is
consistent.
A problem
this steady is usually part of a pattern that generates "known issues" tech reports -
does anybody know of any? I'd sure like to get all the RAM logged on this machine that it can see (and use) - unless it was a oem M.board design FUBAR.
Thanks, Gerry
