Original Elpida (brand) RAM reported as DDR2, is DDR3. Replaced with Crucial (brand), also reported as DDR2. Unfortunately had to use two of the original modules as motherboard/BIOS would not boot:
Original: three 1 GB Elpida modules: slots 1, 2, 3. Attempted: four Crucial 2 GB modules: slots 1,2,3,4 -- would not boot. Eventual work-around: Crucial (2 GB each) in slots 1 and 2; Elpida (1 GB each) in slots 3 and 4. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/798667 Title: dmidecode reports incorrect memory type To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dmidecode/+bug/798667/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
