No I do not, as I was under the impression it's not required unless

you have at least 4gb (sorry for the poor formatting, copying from

putty/terminal to a text box doesn't format very well):

All 3 memory sticks appear fine. The motherboard is an A7N8X Deluxe,
|
| 28 |
my main PC has an A7N8X-E Deluxe; both of them are capable of using
|
| 29 |
3gb of memory, 1gb per stick (3 slots for memory). The 2 x 256 mb
|
| 30 |
sticks came from my main PC which I upgraded with 2 x 512mb sticks.
|
| 31 |
The 512mb stick has been in use by the server for 4 months. I could
|
| 32 |
understand if it was possible that they're incompatible, but then it
|
| 33 |
wouldn't show a gig of RAM when the PC shows the bios screen.
|
| 34 |
Regardless, I'll run memtest86 overnight to be sure. I'll also see
|
| 35 |
what an ubuntu or knoppix livecd shows.
