Memory Upgrade = Downgrade
The other day I fitted a 64MB RAM module to a customer's PC to upgrade them from 64MB to 128MB. Everything appeared to work fine, the RAM was accepted by the machine, but once windows was loaded the PC ran like a dog!! I removed the RAM again and the machine worked OK again. I ran benchamrks on the PC with and without the RAM and for some strange reason it ran at about 1/3 of the speed when the extra RAM was fitted. Perhaps it was a faulty module, perhaps incompatible, but I resolved the issue in the end by fitting a completely different module. Any thoughts on this anyone? Happened to anyone else before?
