We tried both the new 512 stick and both of the old 64 sticks... The laptop only reads 64 MB. We've tried everything, but it's not working. I think it's gone too, but she doens't want to admit it, because for one, she doesn't think so (but I do) that Dell ripped her off... She paid $1,250 for it, and it's NOTHING. The main specs are 128 MB RAM, Windows XP (no SP2 becuase SP2 came out after it was made), Integrated video & sound, processor is not coming to mind now becuase I didn't build the computer. If I would have built it, things would be fine lol
EDIT: Let me rephrase the message that Merlin replied to... It boots with whatever battery is left, but it does the (I think 3) beeps. The technician said that was bad RAM, but after the beeps came a "squack" sound... Not good... Numerous RAM sticks were tried, and none really worked, so it's the M-Board.
