This was also posted in ibm.ibmpc.thinkpad and alt.comp.hardware. I just got a 64m memory upgrade and I installed it into my 380d Thinkpad. When it boots the message that comes in white is: 016000 KB OK This is the same whether I have my 64m chip in, the old chip in(which I currently have no idea on the size) or no chip in. I try to get into the bios with ctrl-f1 and/or ctrl-esc and I come up in the error screen. How do I get directly to the bios? I check the memory and it says that I have 16384 KB installed and 16000 KB usable. This is with no memory chip in. It actually has 12m inside.(unchangeable) This is also what the OS tells me.(FreeBSD 4.4 RELEASE of course) However, this is also what I get when I have either of the other chips in. How do I get the computer to see the new memory? I have been to IBM's web site to look for an installation guide but got discouraged after umpteen dead links. According to my bios systemboard info, the bios version is 1.35, or I1ET49WW, which according to the IBM web page is the most current. Thanks! fybar p.s. Do both pcmcia slots work yet?
