Hi,
    I have missed the beginning of this, so forgive me if I state something
already said.  I recently upgraded my memory as well.  The memory I bought
was a new style called Double Density Memory.  What I was told about it is
that not all motherboards support this standard, and if yours doesn't, it
would read it at half its real size.  Now this was PC133, but if your PC100
memory is new, it's possibly the same stuff  (Company's often either take
normal PC133 memory and relable it to PC100, or they use memory that is fine
at PC100, but not stable at PC133.)

Hope this helps,
Donald Gaither
