All of my memory shows up correctly in ASP. The whole system has worked fine since I got it in January. It wasn't until I installed the CPU last weekend that I started having problems. However, not all the memory is the same make or speed. Perhaps the CPU is having some kind of problem with a certain stick. > > I suggest running some utility program like Cron or MacJanitor and > repairing the permissions as a first step to try. I keep my permissions repaired regularly. I have done that a couple of times since the CPU upgrade. Thanks-- Kevin
