Jonathan, Some BIOS have issues finding more then 64MB of RAM. You might want to try booting with 'linux mem=96M', if you are using lilo, and then checking meminfo. If this takes care of it you can add "mem=96M" to the append line in lilo.conf or it doesn't exist add 'append="mem=96M"' and then run 'lilo -v'. If it freezes you may have "memory holes" for PCI cards or need to drop down to 95 or less. If that is the case, I get fuzzy but there has to be some documentation somewhere. In all of the above ignore the single quotes, good luck.

The BIOS shows all the RAM. I am using a SOHO motherboard. Any help/ideas would be greatly appreciated. My other 2 linux boxes shows the correct RAM.
