I have a Compaq Presario 2500 series (laptop). It has 2 memory slots with a 256mb stick of Ram in each slot giving a total of 512mb RAM.
The problem is that only 192 of it is "recognised". If I go into "System" in the Control Panel it says I have only 192MB. It says the same in F2 Setup before I fully boot up. I am pretty sure this is something that only happened in the last few weeks as it was then I started noticing the laptop just getting very slow considering it should have 512Ram.
I know each memory stick and each slot works, I tried booting up on all the different combinations (with 1 memory stick in slot A, then just the other one in Slot B and vice versa). But only ever 192MB is recognised.
Anyone have any ideas as to what the problem might be?
Thanks
