Default Addition of memory on Prolinea

I can't add more than 1 16Mo RAM on my 4/66 Prolinea.
The total is now 20 Mo.
But I need to add 2x16 Mo I own on the free plugs , but the machine
doesn't want , it boot and boot and boot.
Any idea ?
Emmanuel.

Try with other memory sticks.

20mb may be the system limit.

20 MB is it for many early Prolineas like the 400 series or NET 1s.. 4MB on
the motherboard and a SIMM slot for a 16MB SIMM.
