RAM on Shuttle mobo's

Hi all,
I think I already know the answer to this, but I'll check...

I have a PC with a shuttle SN41G2 motherboard and another with an FN51
mobo, and 2GB of RAM. Neither PC will start with the 1GB stick
installed on its own; both work fine with 2x512MB sticks installed.
They both complete the memory check and hang

So far, so simple. Now comes the weird part....
- when I install the 1GB stick alongside a 512MB stick, both will
start. However, they will only recognise 1GB total of RAM. Running a
memory diagnostic program shows no errors in the RAM.


My question is - do these motherboards support 1GB sticks of RAM? Was
it something that was enabled in a BIOS update that perhaps I need to
download? Because my understanding is that they both do/ should.

Thanks in advance.
Nick

Sorry, that's SN41G2 PC with FN41 mobo and an FS51 mobo. Doh!
