I bought used this 500mhz ibook. Everything works fine. I tried to upgrade the ram with 4 different ram sticks. 1 128 one from a wallstreet, a 256 from a Pismo, a 256 from a TiBook, and today, and original apple 256 ram stick pull from a 14 inches iBook. None of them work. I go to get info and system profile and only shows the default 128, the slot as empty. At first I thought the ram was not the appropriate, but after today I think that the slot is the faulty one. Has anybody heard anything like this before? I read all the posts here and no explanation so far. can a faulty ram slot be fixed/replaced without paying apple 350 for a logic board swap? Help. Thanks to all
