subject: 128MB + 128MB = 191MB ??

I took advantage of the current heavy rebating on
SDRAM DIMMs and now have a 128MD SDRAM by K'Byte and
another 128MB by Kingstone and another 128MB by PNY
(you probably are aware they only allow one rebate
to each buyer 8-(

But when I tried installing any pair of them in place
of the pair of original 64MBs in my CompUSA Work Series
533 Celetron system, with its Win98se O/S; the total RAM
that is indicated when I click my rodent on the Start menu
/Settings/Control Panel/System is only 191MB instead of the anticipated
256MB I can manage on my Systemax Tiger 970553 or IBM Aptiva 2153
systems.

What foreplay can I use to make my CompUSA as compliant please?

Ciao, Ack.
