I did try the module in all three slots, yes, and it does have 8 chips on the back as well... Looks like the only way is to buy stuff marked as "for Mac also".
Thanks for all the response, and right, I had forgotten about that little Dutch company with their great RAM info. Only, I don't find the detailed specs for G4s: it seems G3 is the latest model that they have info for: http://www.chipmunk.nl/DRAM/WhatIsAllowed.htm By the way, I got this module for 10 USD, so it's not a great loss. Chipmunk offers its 512MB modules for 59 Euros each, excluding VAT...! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
