I am trying to install some new RAM into my PowerBook Lombard, bronze
keyboard, G3 400. I had 192 megs in it and bought two new 256 meg modules
for a total of 512 meg. Alas they do not work. After trying all kinds of
combinations with the old and the new ram modules I landed at 320 megs, 1
new 256 and one old 64 meg. I know from talking with people on the list that
512 meg works. I am trying to get the system set up for OSX.
If I try to go to 384, one new 256 and one old 128 module, the system locks
at the Welcome to Mac screen with no message.
If I try 512 meg, both new 256 modules, the I get an address error at the
Welcome to Mac screen.
All memory modules work individually just fine.
Turning off extensions does not help.
The new modules are PC100 RAM I have no idea what the existing ones are.
Anyone have any ideas.
Thanks,
