3G Memory sees only 1G Memory

elisemcc · 31-08-2008, 04:49 AM

Originally installed two sticks of 1/2 Gig sticks then I filled the three memory slots with 1 Gig sticks of memory. During the booting process one Gig is seen then when I changed to three Gigs of memory only one Gig is recognized. How do I get the computer to recognize the additional memory?
