Looks like your computer will not accept high density RAM. The 256M that you are reading are from the two 128 Meg and not from the single 256. If you have 3 dimm slots and your system can support a Max of 384, then that only supports this theory that each slot can only take low density RAM up to 128Meg each (128x3) and not high density RAMS (256 and above).
