RAM memory overcome - working fine

Good day,

HP Palilion dv6103, Motherboard Quanta 30B7, Chipset NVIDIA GeFroce 6150 RevA2.nForce410/430 MCP. Bios F.3D CPU: AMD Sempron 3400+. 3BG RAM

After reading all kind of information, calling and emailing to HP support I get a clear answer that there is no way that my laptop will work with more that 1gb+1gb (total 2Gb). According to all advises there were two options: not working at all or seeing only 2 GB, or system crush . But I was so curios, that I get 2 GB (one slot) and installed it. So my bios sow directly 2 GB of RAM (one slot). After installing 1Gb + 2Gb bios showed with no problem 3 GB. CPU-Z showing 3072 Mbytes. And windows XP SP3 2,68 GB. PC is almost flying. Both memories are Kingston KVR667D2S5.

Question:
I overcame allowed RAM limits, what could happen. I mean now it is working fine, but may it result in overheating or something else, motherboard can burn... ? Do RAM plates working on a max load may course overheating of some elements on the board or it is working in this way: if the board can't handle it, then simply not all RAMs will be used? But all my systems on max load showing full use of these RAMs...
How can I double check are my RAMs working fine?

Any ideas/suggestions - pls advise.

 

Nothing bad will happen if you use more memory than allowed in the official specification. It will either work or not work. If it doesn't work, too bad; go return that extra DIMM you bought. If it works, great; enjoy your extra memory.
