hey guys, am hands-on mechanic in several fields. but little knowledge on ordering specs on parts. have e-machine, 733i,ME, came with 64 ram, now 128. bought 2-256's, had reason to think they would work from online evaluation link. no go.
trying to order a motherboard, but am lost when looking at the numbers. have 100gb with 30 slave.

also, could i have the wrong memory-- 32x64pc100-elp-n......M14N3264-82CCGHU:4 and....does anyone need this if i can't use it..? has only been plugged in, tried, and out.

i'm sure i'll be the greenhorn here, thanks for being here.

prayers, john

Hi Rod428,

The E-Machines 733i Computer can only support a maximum of 256MB of SD-RAM; this must be accomplished by using 2-128MB Sticks of SD-RAM.
Unfortunately the 2-256MB Sticks of SD-RAM you purchased are not compatible with this system.

Ordering a Motherboard for a Computer released prior to 2002 may be hard to find and not worth it.

Realistically not worth upgrading. Consider replacing the machine instead. Seriously.

I vote for this one! You're doing well to keep that dinosaur alive, though.

If you wanted to keep it, see if you can return the RAM and replace it with 2x 128MB sticks. The place of purchase may let you swap.
