| If I had 2x128 single sided memory my next one would be a 256 stick. Intel says their chip set uses 4 banks of 133 mhz. You would be with-in the limits. |

| I agree with Skull. I wouldn't buy any more 128MB sticks. If you get a 256MB stick you might be able to use all 3 and get 512MB. If that doesn't work then you can pull a 128MB stick and try for 384MB. Your chances of hitting 384MB are better with 256+128 than with 128+128+128. If you have troubles, before pulling a bank, try switching the driving mode from "Normal" to "Strong" in the BIOS. [Edited by CRC on 03-15-2001 at 10:40 PM]
