I have a PowerMac G4 Gigabit Ethernet Dual 450 MHz and I had the following memory installed:
(3) 128K PC-133
(1) 512k PC-100
This has worked for me for years but thought it was time to upgrade to the max at 2GB. So I went online and bought (3) 512k PC-133's from ebay (see spec on new memory below). When I installed the memory, in System Profiler the 3 new chips are showing empty. I know they are seated properly in the slots. The configurations of the chips are:
Original 512k PC-100 in DIMM0/J21 (shows fine in profiler)
New 512k PC-133 in DIMM1/J22 (shows empty in profiler)
New 512K PC-133 in DIMM2/J23 (shows empty in profiler)
New 512k PC-133 in DIMM3/J24 (shows empty in profiler)
Is there something I am missing? Below are the specs for the new memory chips I bought:
Gold Pin 168PIN 6Layer memory
Type: SDRAM
Capacity: 512MB DIMM
Speed: PC 133 133FSB / 133MHz
Density: Low Density
Pins: 168 Pin
ECC/Registered: No/No
Volt: 3.3V
CAS Latency: CL3
Unbuffered, DIMM 1 Bank
Anybody have any suggestions as to what I may being doing wrong?
Thanks,
Tim
