Q: Special RAM for Performa 6360?
HI everyone! Im having a problem. Im found my good old performa 6360 working as it was in 1997! But it has only 32 MB of Ram. So, there's a little to do with it. I found a few DIMM cards PC-133 of 64 MB each, and when Install them the performa do not power on. I saw in every mac.com that with two DIMM of 64 we can have the best ram you can have. (136 MB). Can someone help me to find out what happened? Is there any special RAM I have to buy for it?
thanks in advance.

I enlarged the photo on that ebay listing to examine the chips contained on the card. They were manufactured by Hynix Semiconductor: HY57V651620, with specs that indicate 4 Banks x 1M x 16-bit Synchronous DRAM (SDRAM). The TC-10 timing (which isn't the same as refresh rate) would be consistent with 3.3-volt SDRAM, PC-66 or low-end PC-100. This memory can't be used in a Performa 6360. You need the older and harder-to-find 5-volt DRAM with a 2K refresh rate.
