Question : Problem: Bios dosen't recognize all my RAM (mixed RAM)

I recently added 2 - 32 meg dims of SDRAM  to my existing 2 - 32 meg sims of EDO.

When I boot up the computer the bios shows sdram in rows 0,1 and EDO in rows 2,3 sounds like 4 sims counted right?
But when the ticker counts off the memory check it peaks out at 97 megs and some odd change. So it's missing one sim right?
 
I suspect it would run better if I ran without the EDO, (just 64 megs of SDRAM alone) but if I pull the EDO out the computer beeps once on start-up… and then runs no faster….  

I know this is a BIOS problem

Answer : Problem: Bios dosen't recognize all my RAM (mixed RAM)

I am sorry to hear of your memory being damaged,
Mixing simms and dimms can damage the memory and is not supported by many motherboard manufactures, the link below has a the manual for your board and according to it dimms must by of like kind, you can add a second 32 for a total of 64 but I would not try to add a 64 with the 32 as the manual does not support this, it may or may not work.

I am glad I could help.
