For some wierd reason, my motherboard is detecting my two 256mb PC133 SDRAM chips as 128mb PC133 SDRAM chips, giving me a maximum of 256mb RAM total, instead of the 512mb I should have.

Euh, motherboard is ECS Elitegroup P6IWP-FE rev 1.x

I updated to BIOS version 1.2, the latest version avaliable for revision 1 motherboards.

Note: at the Power On Self Test(POST) it detects 256mb (well, 260something =S) not the 512 it shoudl detect.






WHAT IS GOING ON?! I can't figure it out... both the cards work perfectly, and my slots are fine (If i try either one by itself in either slot it still detects 256mb as 1x256)

Mobo manual even says that it should support 512mb ram MAX.
