I have a PB190cs (System 7.5.3) with a 32MB RAM module (Kingston
KTA-PB5300/32) in it. Whenever it is in, The computer will crash
incessantly. The About this Mac shows it correctly at 40MB. GaugePRO crashes
(assuming that it is PPC only), so I can't do a RAM test. If I take it out,
the PB runs fine.

Is it possible for a RAM module to be screwed up enough to crash the system,
but work enough to show up correctly?

My other thought is that maybe there is a compatibility issue between 190s
and 5300s, as this module is marked as being for a 5300. Possible?

Thanks for any help, 8MB of real RAM with 16MB VM on a '040 is pretty bad.
:)
