    Hmmmm,

    What did SIW tell you about the memory and the make/model of motherboard? The MoBo info might be an HP/Compaq part number. "salsa"?

    I have checked a few memory vendors and they all say a maximum of 2 x 512Mb strips.

    Here is another diagnostics tool:

    You might also look in the BIOS.

    Here are some memory testing tools:

    I am not too sure what to expect. In the past I have seen the strips not recognised or recognised as the largest supported value.

    In common with other OEMs HP/Compaq are prone to change components so you may have the FIC am37 board. It will say "AM37" on the board between the AGP and PCI slots:
