That's the problem, I tried Kingston and Crucial and neither
even showed my client's model (PB410a) they finally told me it's
propritary memory, FPM parity.
One thing that complicates the whole deal
is the simms slot is at a low angle and I can only use
single-sided simms. The chips hit on lower side with a
double-sided simms.
