Home / I-Opener Areas / I-Opener Technical Stuff www.memorytogo.com 128m memory didn't work! memory 128 meg from memory to go

www.memorytogo.com 128m memory didn't work! (modified 0 times) rabbid Profile | Email Howdy, I ordered the cap161-128mb ibook 128mb memory from memorytogo.com...... When installed, it only shows 64mb! I believe this is the bios problem that programmer pointed out in a post a while back, but wanted to let everybody know that not all memory with the same part number works the same! If anybody has any suggestions on making this work, I'd love to hear it. Jim 01-24-2001 14:55:55

RE:www.memorytogo.com 128m memory didn't work! (modified 0 times) vwbug19 Profile try disabling the 15-16mb memory hole in bios it worked for me on my v3 io with 128mb pc66 from best buy :) 01-24-2001 22:51:41

RE:www.memorytogo.com 128m memory didn't work! (modified 0 times) rabbid Profile | Email Rats. It was already disabled. Thanks for the idea, though. Programmer... wildpencil....anybody... Do you guys know what I should ask for from Memorytogo that will work? Any magic specs for the 128m pc100 sodimm that works? Thanks! 01-25-2001 04:47:04

RE:www.memorytogo.com 128m memory didn't work! (modified 0 times) Programmer Profile ask for 8 chips.. If you look at your memory, you (should) notice that it has 4 chips. The chipset (it seems) does not support 256Mbit chips. If you get SODIMMS that use 8 128Mbit chips, they should work. In theory (I haven't tested it) you should be able to use 256MB SODIMMS that have 16 half-size 128Mbit chips. 01-25-2001 07:40:16

RE:www.memorytogo.com 128m memory didn't work! (modified 0 times) rabbid Profile | Email Thank you programmer! I'll as for that when I exchange the memory. I can confirm that the chips on the sodimm that memorytogo sent has 4 chips. 01-25-2001 09:22:12

RE:www.memorytogo.com 128m memory didn't work! (modified 0 times) StormFlare Profile I have ordered the same memory, and it only has four chips... but it works in my v5 I-O. So, do you think they fixed this problem in the later revisions? 01-25-2001 14:34:17

RE:www.memorytogo.com 128m memory didn't work! (modified 0 times) StormFlare Profile Nevermind... mine has 8 chips. Sorry. I had to double-check it. 01-25-2001 14:35:43
