That website is wrong. It says right in your specs that you need PC133 ram. That website is trying to sell you PC100 ram = not work. |

I've had a friend help me with most of the software stuff. The machine is done...just got to nail down this slow MAME thing... |

Yeah, It just shows you how to put it in. A quick google search for "Optiplex GX150 ram" confirms that you need a PC133 DIMM. It must be NON ECC or "not registered" ram. Your dell manual states that. Try getting another 128meg stick from another source than the one you originally tried. |

Thanks for the advice. This is what I got. http://www.provantage.com/edge-tech-311-7001-pe~7EDGD03V.htm I'm going to still try an older version of MAME to see if I have any luck. Thank you very much for the advice. |
