Net DIMM RAM upgrade - help?

OldFoo · Post by **OldFoo** » Thu Dec 18, 2008 3:18 am

I've got two pretty much identical 256MB 133mhz sticks of ram, that individually work perfectly in my net dimm (rev 2.13), but when they are put in both slots together, I get "Error 27 DIMM MEMORY IS NOT ENOUGH."

Any jumpers or settings I need to change in order to upgrade the DIMM memory?

There is no special setting to upgrade the Dimm module. I upgraded my module with no problems. When you say they're identical, do you mean they have the same or similar specs, or that they are the same brand, make, model, etc?

They are both identical size, speed, timings and they both work individually on the DIMM perfectly and both check out as fine in the memory test in the test menu. Just together they won't play nicely.

Need to change the jumpers, can't recall which ones.

Guess I'll have to try to chase up a PDF of the net dimm.

If anyone has a 512 net dimm, if they could take a pic of the internal jumpers, I would be `internally` grateful.

Why do you want a 512MB dimm?? Only 1 Naomi 2 game needs 512MB.

I was thinking of picking up the Virtua Striker 3 on triforce. Needs a 512mb DIMM. I'll still have to upgrade it to 3.17, but that's not really too hard to do with the VF4 Final Tuned IC and the upgrade disc.

You mean Virtua Striker 4?? IF so you'll need a Tri/Chi 3.03 512MB Dimm, seems to be 3.03.

3.17 = Error

I confirm, type 1 are 3.03. I recall the network ports on these are NOT active. Moreover only VF4FT needs 3.17.

Ah, I was under the impression that any Naomi DIMM at 3.17 would work :O And yes, I did mean Virtua Striker 4 :smt004
