Hello all,

okay, i bought a Sony Vaio computer (cheap *wink**wink*)

basically,

Sony says the max memory is 512mb! But i flashed the bios with the lates bios from Asus, and Asus says the board can hold 2g of memory, however, i have flashed the bios, and reintalled my own XP, and yet, i just put in 2 x 512mb chips, but it only picks up 512mb.


Is there any other way to get it to pick up the 1g of mem i got in it? Or has Sony hacked something that will only allow 512mb of mem max?


thnx in advance.!

Are you reading the amount of memory from the Bios directly? If so, either the second slot is not seated properly, or that slot is disabled.
