Question about 'Dealing with Bad Memory (RAM)'

I have a Toshiba Satellite 2535cds laptop, the machine was sent to a
repair center and I was informed that the memory upgrade module
(64meg) was damaged or defective after nearly 3 years of flawless
service. The defective/damaged module was the cause for the inability
of the machine to boot. The board was replaced per repair center,
I bought new memory as recommemnded by Toshiba (Kingston),
the machine will not boot consistently and when it does, the dev.mgr
only recognizes 16 megs. I have also bought 128 meg module which
none is recognized,but machine will boot everytime. Also the bios
recognizes correct amt of ram when either 64 or 128 meg module
is in place. Any one have any ideas?..Toby

so they replaced the motherboard? crucial
says that the toshiba satellite 2535cds can only handle 160mb of ram, of which 32mb
is non-removable. i'd be tempted to say that you have more faulty ram or a bad motherboard.
