Ok, so I decided its time to order some more ram for my INTEL D845GVS1
I used the scan tool from crucial, and ordered accordingly, from a trustworthey seller on ebay....
Right now I am running on....sob...256mb of ram.
When I installed the new 1gb ram, it says it decreased the memory size to 24 mb and when i go into the bios, it is only 24mb... Now im pretty sure it SHOULD be 1024 mb.
Should I look into flashin the bios? Im good with computers, but the would be new for me...
