 DID NOT ADD PC133, ADDED PC100(SAME AS WHAT CAME OUT). BOTH THE OLD AND NEW
ARE SINGLE -SIDED, TRIED RUNNING JUST THE NEW MODULE AND IT RAN FINE BUT WAS
RECOGNIZED AS ONLY EXTENDED MEMORY. WHETHER I HAVE 64, 128, OR A COMBO THE
PUTER SAYS I HAVE 640K CONVENTIONAL AND XMS AS 195,520K (WHEN BOTH ARE
INSTALLED). ALSO RAN IN THE "O" AND "1" SLOTS AS SUGGESTED. ANY OTHER IDEAS?
