You can add, 256K, 1024K, 4096K, 16,000K, simms. But they all have to be the same when they are in the same bank of memory. {note: I did read the discussion on mixing memory speeds, for simplicity sake I'm not going to recommend people mix memory speeds, cause then if it don't work, they'll get mad at me. } Hope this helps. -- \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\|///////////////////////////////////////// David M.

Further more, if you have 4 256K simms and 4 1meg simms installed, the 4 1 meg simms have to be in the lower four slots while the 256 in the upper four slots. >The Weesh Jeff jchau@girtab.usc.edu
