the ram slots on that board are supposed to be populated starting from slot
4 down to 1. slots 2 & 1 are special in that they share banks, if I recall.
You should try putting the 512 MB stick in slot 4 and the 128 in slot 3 and
keep in mind that the KG7 had the tightest ram slots of any board I ever
saw. be sure to support the board under the ram slots so that when you
firmly but carefully insert the sticks, the board does not flex and a poor
connection to the ram develop.
another way to do it would be to pull the board and set it on a flat surface
to ensure that you can firmly seat the ram.
