In the end, I couldn't find any information which warned against running up
to 512Mb of ram in W98SE so I put all mine back in again.

However, a MS knowledge base article DID say that running more than 512Mb
would work best with a modification to the ini cache settings (can't
remember the specifics, but I'm sure I can find the info if anyone really
wants to know)
