Right now, I'm using just a single 512MB module, but it is single-sided (I guess that by double-sided you guys mean that it has chips on both sides of the module, right?). The only double-sided module that I have here is the 256MB module. OTOH, with just one 512MB everything *seems* to be working fine, but, honestly, I'm not sure. > It is also generally unstable if set to anything over PC100 memory speed > in my experience (my machine has the same board). Hummm, nice to see that you have also experienced this. With 256 + 128, I had to use PC100 to have it work stably. > The memory speed detection doesn't work properly.

I'd obviously prefer to have everything working at PC133 speed, but wouldn't mind running at PC100 speed if I could use everything, since I sometimes need to use some large programs (for some dynamic programming problems).
