Hi All:

< This sounds like a BIOS or Motherboard issue.
Check you Laptop manual. It will tell you what the maximum amount of
installed RAM can be .
  Laptops are very proprietary and it may not accept more then another 8
megs or you might have your modules installed in incorrect amounts.

I just received a 16 Mg Ram Module for a Digital HiNote laptop.

>I didn't see any ware at Vikings site for this, did I miss it? >


Hi Mark,  Before I ordered the memory (from E-bay) I did check
to be sure I could use this module.  The manual states that I can use
a 16 mg module for a total of 20 mg.  The laptop will only take one
module.  It had a 4 mg and I wanted to top it out so I got a 16 mg
module.
The computer works good but it was slow with only 8 mg.  Is there some
place to check this modules size on the web?  I would like to verify that
this module will work with my laptop.


TIA
