Along with the memtest86 mentioned in another reply, consider this.
When I upgraded the memory on my CentOS 4.x box, an Acer Ak77-400
(Max/N) unit with the via kt-400 chipset, last year to 2GB, it wouldn't
work. To make a long story short, the DIMMS had no specs. The "auto" was
set in BIOS for voltage. My fix was to change that to manual and bump
the voltage a couple of tenths. More memory draws more amperage, may
need more voltage to drive sufficient amperage.
*MAKE SURE YOU DON'T VOID YOUR WARRANTY*
*If* this tweak fries your memory (one or two tenths should not), you
might be SOL. You might want to check the specs on the memory, check
with your vendor about the issue (including warranty), etc. before
proceding.
