laptop memory upgrade
just got my 128 upgrade SODIMM, but it don't work. As in, when I put it in and start windows, it restarts. safe mode halts with a himem.sys error in the extended memory. Linux also refuses to boot. Is this a bad chip? the tech support guy said to reinstall windows overtop of the old install to get it to recognise the new memory. Anyone ever have to do this? i've never heard of it.
specs:
toshiba satellite 2595cdt
win98
128 meg SODIMM from crucial (a division of Micron)
thanks!
