    Ok first thanx for all the help.
    I have a question that only applies to this system for sure.. maybe others but I know I can get the right answers.
    During this time of being a new owner I have learned alot of things.
    like this model dosn't have that dual channel. capabilty so it dosn't matter about mixing the memory.
    Anyway back to my issue I bought 2 1 gb Patriot dimms I can get only one to work and only if i place the 512 in the bottom slot,
    Dam IBM.......
    I bought the two thinking I could get the two GBs but right now its only at 1.5.
    I did some checking and both the original and the new is the same specs except for the size so there really is no reason for this issue. and due to the fact they Both, new ones will work but only in slot two(upper) and post I have read make me believe it is an platform bug.
    don't want fight it so my question is if I take back a one and get a 2gb will it work with the 512 I don't care if I only see the 2 but since going from 1 to 1.5 drop my memory usage from 69% to 47%, I do not think I need to go more
    Has anyone placed the 2gb in and had it work?
    Thanx Alex
