1 - Read or download a manual (if you can find one anywhere).
2 - Visit a "Memory" site (unless you don't have Inet access).
3 - Borrrow someone else's RAM and see what happens.
4 - Wait for me to find more info "out there".

I tried a 64MB PC66 strip in this old IBM. It only saw 1/4 of it.
That strip was 4-clock. I found out a bit later I needed 2-clock.

I now have 2 strips of old 2-clock 32MB in there, and they work fine,
even though the strips say "Compaq" on them.
