Your first document, why are you looking for that one ?
That's a product brief for the Q45 chipset of the 780.
*******
Well, you asked for the "maximum upgrade" possible, and
as far as I can tell, that is 4x4GB of DDR3 on the Optiplex 780.
I didn't get a status back on your findings for your 2x2GB
existing DIMMs on the 780. You claimed they were both working,
and with both of them plugged in, you were going to run a memtest.
Only at the moment, your memtest CD isn't working.
Which is possibly a boot order thing, to be corrected
in the BIOS setup screen.
So, how is it going ? Is your existing test work complete ?
