Ram Problem

I have a poweredge 600sc that wont show anymore than 256mb ram, no matter what i put in.

Message reads memory limited to 256mb ram.

I have updated the bios to the latest version.

I have tried other 256 / 512 /1gb combinations

 

Any help would be appreciated

 

Thanks.

    Hi Mike,

    You might check in the bios for an entry called O/S install mode and ensure that it is disabled.  O/S install mode masks your actual memory to 256mb to help certain installs go more smoothly.

     

    Good Luck,

    Jason

    just a bit off topic (admin plz relocate to the right thread), but I read that some of you have a bugged computer.  there are several common reasons why a computer might be slow. could be your virtual memory, your physical RAM, the amount of programs in your startup, (dont forget the RUN key in the registry. Use the MSCONFIG program to adjust those), fragmented hard disk.... Heres a good guide for some things to help fix a  slow computer http://www.songwave.com/allguides/speedcomp.aspx
    Another place you could check is http://www.eslpc.com/slowcomp.htm


    best thing to do is to check the things I mentioned above.
