Howdy, I would suggest you contact their tech support. That model should support 512 MB sticks, but they have to be the right type. I looked up a G4 466Mhz (Digital Audio) and if it handles 512MB sticks, then yours should. Describe what is happening to you and I think they will take care of you. They supported me a couple of years back when I got memory that did not work. They are not the cheapest, but one reason I liked them was that they knew the Mac products and treated their customers right. Good luck, Ralph
