Message-ID: Date: 21 May 91 09:27:59 GMT References: Sender: news@diemen.utas.edu.au Lines: 23 If you are saying, that you upgraded a standard mac plus, to a standard 2.5 megs, which involved the standard installation and standard resistor cut, then the memory is obviously Very Bad. What you are encountering is most likely a rining effect. We had a couple like this, and they had left the campus back to their supplier within hours we found out they they were bad. To upgrade, you simply pull appart install, cut resistor and put back together. It will work, and there is no diffrence in performance when powered up, except for a slightly longer delay, and that the system (Under the black apple, about finder) reports a total of 2.5meg. Anyway, i feel i should know. I have upgraded inxs of 500megs see what happens ay' steve h
