I have a S30 and am wondering if anyone has successfully installed more than 256 MB of ram?

I have two S30s ...
One with 128 MB, one with 256 MB RAM. But I did not ever try to increase RAM. De facto I was and am affraid of changing anything because these machines are too rare.
Where would I get replacement parts? I experiment with them very, very carefuly.
I am happy they work (with Win2000).
Sorry I can not help you.

HMM says 128 MB onboard memory plus max. 128 MB.
Crucial system scanner´s reply was unsure - did not recognise S30.
And you, did you try to increase RAM?

According to
this guy, 256MB is the max total RAM.

Looks like that's a chipset limitation in the i440MX - 256MiB maximum addressable RAM.
