Amilo Xi 1554, 4Gig RAM  Topic is solved

Postby ArneAnd » Fri Jan 25, 2008 12:24 pm

Tried to upgrade to 2x2 Gig Ram on my Xi 1554 without luck the other day.

This is what I got when playing with the mem sticks.

1+1 Good
2+2 No good
2+0 Good
2+1 No good
1+2 No good

Seems the box only supports 2 Gig.

Im running BIOS 1.25, anyone know of a newer BIOS with the support of 4 Gig??

In the german amilo-forum I found a thread where different modules seemed to work. But the only one with evidence was Transcend JM800QSU-2G.
However, running the Xi 1554 with 4GB is tricky and the result seems to be by random.
I think the best thing would be to visit a local dealer and test some modules in his store. If a combination works, buy it.

Ive seen some post saying one can try an Alienware BIOS, because it is the same HW. I'll look into that one a bit more
