Re: [TCLUG:4822] Ram, only detecting 65 of 128 meg. Problem!



The bios Chipset Features setup interface has settings for; SDRAM RAS-to-CAS Delay
and SDRAM RAS Precharge Time which are both set to slow. My point being, of course
these thoughts are spawned from a mind that is ignorant on these hardware issues,
that the sdram settings indicate compatibility. Perhaps?
