R52 and more than 2 GB memory

#1 Post by koden » Tue May 22, 2012 7:53 am

So far as I can see it's not possible to install more than 2 GB.

Or is there a way to put more memory in?

At the moment i have 1 x 2GB block in.
I'm danish. Sorry for my sometimes bad english spelling and understanding.

Your R52 would be better served with 2 1GB DIMMs enabling it to run in dual-channel mode.

You might get the machine to "see" more than 2GB, but the chipset limitation to 2GB of usable RAM remains.

It will enable itself once installed.
