Memory Issue by Mark
Presario 7360: Just bought two 128MB PC100 DIMMS from Best Buy (cheapo kind) and got the usual 164-Memory size error on bootup; however, it is only recognizing 196MB of RAM... I thought the 7360 was upgradeable to 512MB but I could be wrong. Any thoughts on what might be wrong? Possible bad stick?
