After I installed new one and boot up the computer and BIOS showed my memory is 256MB Ram. I thought new memory is bad or one of the memory bank is bad, so I swept the memory with different bank and boot up the computer and find out the both memories and the banks are find. I tried to tweak the bios or OS but still BIOS show 256MB.<br /> Anyone has idea what's the problem? BTW, my BIOS doesn't have any option for detecting memory, it's automatic detection.<br /> <br /> Also, how do I update the BIOS? Sony requires to have floppy disk, but my notebook doesn't have floppy driver and I don't want to pay couple 100's to buy it.<br /> <br /> If any of you can give me a point, really appreciate it.<br /> <br /> Thanks<br /> <br /> <br /> SONY VAIO GRX-570<br /> 512MB Ram<br /> P4 1.6GHz<br /> 40GB HDD<br /> <br />
