Im after a cheap upgrade.
I have an ASRock K7S41GX mobo 2GB max.
currently I have 512mb ram.

the system was built for me .
What I have now found after trying to fit more ram and getting three beeps is..
the processor has a fsb of 266Mhz
the current 512mb Ram is 266/333 DDR.

the FSB jumper was set for 100Mhz!!

Ive changed the FSB jumper to 266 but still cant get the 1GB 333RAM stick recognised.

does this mean the new 1GB stick is only 333Mhz not dual 266/333?

will changing the FSB jumpers to 333 speed up the 512mb 266/333 stick?

thanks

Hi Windy, RAM can only run as fast as the ram is designed for.

if your motherboard supports faster - it will still support the slower stuff as well. If you have 2 different spead modules they will both run at the slower speed.
