My TP560 (2640-10U) has been sitting idle for a while until I got my 64MB SODIMM today. I plug it in and fire up the laptop, but it recognizes only 40MB total (8 + 32). I updated the BIOS to v1.20 and I believe I followed the instructions (including clicking on "Initialize"), but the laptop still maxes out at 40MB.
I checked the 64MB and I'm led to believe it should work. Well, it does say "8Mx64" on a sticker and there are 4 IC's on one side for non-parity.
Is there anything else I should do? I really want to run a desktop environment on the 560, and debian (woody) recommends 64MB minimum.
Thanks.
