Shibuda,
If you are helped you can rate on the 4 thumbs and leave a short comment,because,
this is the free side and I can get the chance, to help people like you .

Remove all RAM, and eseat the new 128 board.

The new board MUST be :
128MB (1X128MB) PC100 NONECC UNBUFFERED 168 PIN SDRAM DIMM

If the criteria is anything but the configuration above, it will not work.
Also because of the type of memory, I am guessing the age of the board (or system) check to see what the max RAM is and see if your new board exceeds that amount.

Good luck.

Hi,

Actually you are doing better than you think, According to your MB specs it is only supposed to hold a max of 2GB (1GB per slot). The updated BIOS may be allowing for the additional 500MB.

If you would like to verify, here is a link to the manual for your MB:

P5VD2-MX SE Manual

See page viii.

Thanks for using Fixya.

yes you can, enjoy the upgrade.

The motherboard you mentioned supports DDR1 RAM.

For windows xp and general application 512 MB is enough.
But if you use memory intensive applications like image/video editing then you can opt for 1-2 GB RAM.

Normally 512MB is a good configuration of Ram to work with Windows Xp Sp2 but you have clean your temporary files frequently

Increasing RAM will not give you much speed difference because first you have study the Motherboard Bus speed and the cache memory - Actual speed increase from those things and the compatibilty.

Changing Ram you have to determine what type of ram and its bus speed whether its a SD Ram or DDR1 or 2 I hope now days SD ram cost more because its outdated and DDR1 is also bit costly than DDR2.

Most likely the memory is incompatible or in the wrong configuration. Check here to see the proper configuration for this motherboard.
