I did this and was just about to proclaim you the winner, as the<br>machine booted up with 8 gigs! But then I noticed the video card was<br>forcing things to a lower resolution (power saving maybe?)...and when<br>I plugged in a couple of things that hadn't been hooked up yet<br>(speakers and network cable), the machine locked up.<br><br>Dang.<br><br>Well, 4 gigs is 4 times better than the 1 gig I had before. The<br>computer is now comfortable to use. Anybody wanna buy the 4 gigs I<br>won't be using? I'll throw in a set of two 512 meg sticks as well.<br>:-) $20 for all...they're all confirmed to work if your machine can<br>pump up the power.<br><br>Kendric Beachey<br><br><br><br>On Mon, Nov 21, 2011 at 7:50 PM, Roger Heflin <<a ymailto="mailto:rogerheflin@gmail.com" href="mailto:rogerheflin@gmail.com">rogerheflin@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br>> Try using that screen from our post and setting the speed down to as<br>>
