Memory display error

I have an athlon 1Ghz, 256 MB pc 133 SDRAM and windows ME. I had errors printing as well as general loading, so I foramtted the hard drive, and put on Win 98. The computer loaded up slowly. So I reinstalled WIN ME, the computer still runs excessively slow. I checked the BIOs and all of the Cache's are enabled, but now the memory reports as 32 MB SDRAM. I dont know what to do. Did the RAM go bad? or is it in the BIOS?

no its not the ram. go into your bios and reload the default settings. sounds like the memory limit is set too low. As for Windows... thats microsoft for you. I have windows me on a 633 mhz 64 mb pc. You dont know slow :-)

Hard to say what went wrong. Did you set the BIOS to the defaults to try and clean up any enabling errors? Try that first. Remember! Do one thing at a time and write it down so you can always go back and change it. Keep posting even if you fix it so the next feller can learn. Good Luck.
