Re: Memory for Wallstreet
Be careful about the memory in the Wallstreet. I was only able to get 256 total (2 - 128 chips, Kingston) ram work in my Wallstreet 233, which also had a Powerlogix 466 upgrade card installed. There have been many listers that reported successfully using the larger 512 chips and some reporting 2 - 512 working. Since Apple only certified the Wallstreet for 192 mb ram, you are really on your own. Most reputable vendors will take the memory back either in exchange or credit. As far as I know, no one ever offered an answer why some people could and some couldn't make the higher ram work. Best Regards, Wayne Schneck My wife's Wallstreet 233 II has a 256MB SODIMM in the upper slot and I put in precisely a 256MB SODIMM that I had retired from my TiBook. It works, but only 128MB of it is recognized. This seems to be a reasonably well known issue with the type of memory that the Wallstreet is not fully equipped to handle. Not as big an upgrade as I expected, but works well. Luis -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Memory for Wallstreet
Actually I now see I'm backwards in that it's a low profile, which of course means it would work in both, so does that means we could have two 512s and have a wallstreet recognize both?

Re: Memory for Wallstreet
Hi, Folks! Please forgive my intrusion into this conversation. I've been receiving contradictory opinions about whether I can use a matched pair of low profile OEM 256MB SODIMMs from a Titanium G4 in a Wallstreet 233, and have them recognized and be usable as 512 MB of ram by that machine. Their speed is 133MHz, and I believe the Wallstreet's bus is either 66 or 100MHz. I've heard from some that these Hynix sodimms should clock down to 100MHz and work fine, and by others that the'll blow up the Wallstreet or that the Wallstreet has a 66MHz bus and that the chips won't work at all. Can you either shed some light on this or direct me to a reliable source for this information? Thank you!
