Hi,
I've got a strange problem on two of my machines. Upgraded one Compaq Prosignia 300 from 16 Mb to 80 Mb by adding 2 x 32 Mb. Did run through the Compaq setup and it shows me 80 Mb.
Allthough, running SuSE 5.3 linux, only the first 16 Mb is shown. I did recompile the kernal, but still it sticks at 16 Mb.
I know this problem. Go into the Bios setup, then turn an option called "ram hole at 16m" (or something like that) off. I can't remember what ram holes are for, but you will find that it can cause problems with os's other than win95.
How does one enter BIOS on a Compaq. A friend and I each have one, and neither of us can do it.
