The ACRE 5315 recoignised the now 2.5Gb in the machine and it works fine perhaps time will tell Ken I have fitted a 2GB crucial DDR2 in the slot that says max 1Gb, this was in error not until I got the scanner from Crucial to check it did I find it says max IGb per slot.

Is anyone else having this problem or is it a issue on my end? I'll check back later and see if the problem still exists. I’m not sure why but this site is loading very slow for me.

Some sites say that the memory for these netbooks have a special "chip" exclusively needed for this mobo. Has anyone upgraded my model to 2 gigs successfully? NewEgg says that 2 2gig module of DDR2-667 (PC2-5300) SO-DIMM will work. I am afraid to waste the time and money if anyone can give me input I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

I thought I would give this a try: I have an Acer Aspire One netbook, and it has given me tons of trouble since I bought it earlier this year. It's the memory- if I have a program like winamp running while doing something else, I will more often than not get the blue screen. I decided to upgrade the memory, installing a 1 gb stick. It didnt really help matters any, but the BIOS recognized the new memory and it worked as well as it did before. Then one day, from out of nowhere, the darn thing just shut off. When I tried to turn on the computer again, it would shut off shortly after windows xp had loaded. I tried turning on the computer and going straight to the BIOS menu, but it would still shut off. It occured to me that there must be some kind of hardware conflict, because that is the only time I have ever seen something like this occur on a computer. I took out the installed memory, put it back together, and turned it on. Sure enough, the computer started and ran as well as it always had. Fast forward maybe a month or so. It's doing the SAME thing all over again, only this time I have nothing to take out. The only thing left is the motherboard in this machine, plus the hard drive. My thinking is that yet again, the stupid memory is the issue. As we all know, however, the memory on this thing is onboard. So... does anyone know how to disable the onboard memory? I really don't want this thing to become a paperweight. Hey everyone, I’m new here so I don’t know if this is an active thread. I thought I would give this a try:

I used the Kingston RAM mentioned above, on my Linux AAO 110, and got both types of starting up problems. 1) Fan goes on but screen remains black, no contact with keyboard, neither F2 or F12 worked. ACER said it was no problem and sent it back to me. The machine worked for a week, then 2) the machine will only start up through Ethernet/Lan device. A number of things can bypass the problem but only temporarily, say 1-5 hours. The only solution, take ot the Kinston RAM. Which I understood why. Be careful with upgrading the RAM.
