Re: Bit of a problem with some RAM...

Exact RAM specs:

Crucial 2GB 200pin DDR2 soDIMM 256Mx64PC2-5300 667Mhz
CT25664AC667

Nearly everything straight off of the package. A couple other numbers are just bar code ids.

Thank again,
Parker

I just looked around for the voltage settings in my BIOS and I couldn't find anything.

Update Numero Dos: Me and my dad just switched around the RAM between our two computers. His Gateway will boot with one of my two gig sticks, and one of his one gigs. Mine, however, won't boot with the same configuration. Now, when I took the one gig stick out and replaced it with one of my stock 512 sticks, it boots fine. I'm believing it's a voltage issue. It doesn't seem like there would be a cut-off at 2.5gigs to 3gigs.

3: Booted into the BIOS to check something, and my computer is only picking up the 2gigs of RAM, yet it still boots with the 512 in. Odd...Why do I love computers so much!?
