111571 2003-01-07 01:01:00 I have tried to install 512Mb of Sd 133Mhz ram into a dell dimention L800CXE. It has not reconized it it. It still reads 64Mb in the control pannel. if i take out the 64 mb stick and just leave the 512 Mb one in it beeps. I think there could be some setting in the cmos which i have to change but i dont no what the button is which i have to push to get into it and the screen that tells you flashes up so fast that i cannot see it. can anyone help? mcatley (662)

Its quite likely it will not work with the 512k stick, there are single sided and double sided RAM, some motherboards require specific types .

They can also be slot selective .
