Also, get RAMometer and test your RAM for about 1500 iterations. If any of the RAM in there is 128 MB sticks, it might be from a company called Velocity Upgrades and they shipped a lot of defective RAM for these machines. I once sent back seven sticks out of an order of eight.

You'll want to use the RAM sandwich method, as the OS occupies some memory at the top and bottom of the addresses and so prevents those portions of two sticks from being tested.

You can find extensive discussion of the RAM sandwich method in the archives for the LEM Supermacs list over at lowendmac.com.
