In Reply to: RE: Files needed for cplay to recognize new memory posted by theob on December 19, 2011 at 15:13:46
remove /maxmem=256 switch altogether, to allow windows to see full stick and to find addresses for it. I had this insufficient memory warning with cplay but the deficit was only 1-3 mb and it was memory timings' dependent. Are the old and new sticks otherwise totally identical - manufacturer, speed... Are You putting it in the same bank (white slot). Also, when You were making deletions, was there a 1 gb stick still on the mobo, or you put 256 and started the deletions? I would guess You had 1 gb, deleted everything and then put back 256 mb stick. For windows it is a hardware change, and as all services and files are deleted, it cannot properly initiate plug-n-play/install new hardware automatic routine.

I tried that ...did not work.

Same sticks I have used for 4 years.

Same slot, yes I started with 1 gb did deletions then put in the 256 mb. Looks like I have to have yet another do-over. Put in hardware 1st then do the deletions.
Thanks Serge
Anybody know which files need to be restored for windows to do this?
I doubt you would have any problem using the 256 from the beginning.
Especially if you do an nLite install ...
Just make sure you use default voltage settings for the installation. I would leave all other settings (for your board) the same as cMP.
You are right. In the process of debugging my problem I swapped in a new stick then forgot about it until I noticed I was getting 8 minutes + before a memory swap. So unless I can pull a rabbit out of the hat by substituting a few files I'll have to do it over anyway.
