RAM upgrades can be tricky.
The last time I did one I had to be very explicit about certain details. Was it parity? I can't remember, but it turns out that RAM being offered as generic "one size fits all" often had make-or-break details that the seller was either unaware of, or just didn't give a damn about.
When I finally got the *specific* RAM I thought I needed it dropped in and sync'd up with the existing RAM just fine.
This was a ram upgrade from 1GB to 2GB on a 10+ year old XP machine.
I have no idea if more modern era RAM has complexities like this, but I imagine so.
Cheers,
Presto
