Building a router/firewall and a server

[Harrison]

OK, so a maximum of 128MB in total can be installed. And I'm assuming it can be either Dimm or Simm and not both? It doesn't really state what speed or Simm or Dimm which doesn't help.

I will have a look through my spare ram for you and see what I have and list it. If you can work out what the Simm and Dimm types it needs are, that would be useful. PC100, PC133 and for Dimm, PC2100, PC2700 or PC3200.

Failing that if interested I have a spare P2 400Mhz PC you can have to use instead. For free, just the price of postage. Has 512MB ram, 8MB AGP card, 12GB HDD etc...

Here is a scan of one of the SIMMs which is installed now.

There isn't any other information on them. Is there a programme which will run on Windows 95 that would be able to tell me details about the memory and motherboard?

I bought some memory off ebay a few weeks ago.

I put it in the machine, and it works, but I don't get the full amount available. I forgot exactly what happens. I will check tomorrow.

Some motherboards don't like certain combinations and won't show the full amount. Often this is due to single and double sized simms/dimms. I had issues with older Athlon XP motherboards that would do this.
