[comp.binaries.ibm.pc.d] Memory problems

I recently ordered some memory from DRAM, Co, & it came in today.

I opened up my computer, & it had 4 banks

======1======
======2======
======3======
======4======

& 1 & 2 were filled with 9 x 256 K chips.

Well, to my utter annoyance, DRAM only mailed me 16 of the 18 that I
needed.  Well, I figured, I could just fill up 3, & fill most of 4,
and configure my computer to recognize the 768 K that I had ....

Well, I have an AT compatible & I don't see  any dip switches anywhere.

(I do see, however 4 jumpers)

& so I ran the setup program & set up as 640K standard memory &
128K extended.

it won't accept it.  it says memory configuration error...

oh well.  any responses or suggestions beyond welcome.
