The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

128MB SDRAM reads as 64MB

Asked by pridesn8 in Miscellaneous Hardware, Computer Memory (RAM)

Tags: 64mb, sdram, 128mb, only, reads

I read through couple of questions asked regarding memory and found a question very similar to mine under windows XP category dated 07/29/2003 by reynola_rex......but the answers that have suggested are not quite appropriate......
I tried to upgrade my computer (motherboard : AOPEN MX6B/EZ, chipset : INTEL 82440 zx/bx AGPset, CPU : Intel Pentium 3 700 Mhz), by increasing RAM... At the moment i have only 64MB PC 133 16-chip, i bought 2 KINGSTEN PC133 128MB 4-chip memory chips.......when i installed both with other chip it reads 192MB...also before installing the chips couple of months ago i upgraded the BIOS to year 2000 from year 1999...before the updation of the bios i wasnt able to backup the old version of BIOS...... To test the new chips i inserted 1 at a time removing the old chip....all methods failed and it only reads 1 chip as 64MB......
I exchanged them for new 1s still the same, also i refunded the money and bought same chips from different place......still the same problem.......
Another thing i got them checked in a celeron machine, in that it reads both as 256MB.......
I heard that it could be solved by inserting 8 or 16 chiped memory, but the problem is its really hard to find 8 or 16 chip memory....mostly available are the 4-chip ones........
so please i'm quite helpless at the moment, if there's any solutions please reply.....
thank you very much.......
