I've been upgrading my old PowerBook G3 Wallstreet (so far I have a 40GB hard drive and OS 9.2.2 in it), the only problem I seem to have hit is the issue of RAM compatibility; I tried a known-working Micron brand 256MB PC100 from a ThinkPad 600X but it only gave me the "sad Mac" sound yet works fine in the 600X I put two Samsungs in but only one seems to be recognized (the one on the lower slot) and it gives an error dialog on startup about the memory
Any brands that are recommended for this model? (I do know that only the 16 chip 256MB sticks work, AFAIK) Is it also safe to mix brands of RAM or will the G3 reject mismatched sticks?
