I dont know where else to ask this but um.. OK heres the deal. I have a AMD-K6 300MHz, 196mb (128mb + 64mb), and two 6.1Gigs HD running on WIN 2K. So I got another 128chip same as the other 128mb, both are the same..P133. After I installed the chip.. EVERYTHING was A-OK. Anyhow..I had to downgrade to WIN ME, cuz my couldn't run Mix Man Pro4 nor my Raindow6-Rouge Spear games. So why do I now get a error message after boot in windows a popup says "Memmap Vxd failure" Whats Up wit dat? Please help.. other then that everything is fine.. thats the only error I get.. HELP ME!!

I've encountered this when setting up new systems. I belive it's video related. Try going into Control Panel->System->Device Manager and look for any exclamation icons. Then fix them. You might also try re-installing your video card drivers for ME. That might fix it also. ScottA

It's just a guess on my part. When installing a win 98 system. If you choose the wrong video driver you'll get a "cannot find .Vxd" error. However, the "Memmap" wording is something I've never seen before. Try the Hardware&Technical forum. Those guys do a lot of system building ScottA

Just off the top of my head, I suggest you remove the new memory and bootup the computer. If the computer behaves, then it's the new memory that's the problem.
