Gateway 450sx4 memory limit removal?

[ashrond]

Hello all,
I found this forum whilst doing research on bios feature unlocking; I have a gateway 450sx4 which I am prepping to be given to someone who is in need of a computer. The laptop has the i845d chipset which is rated by Intel for up to 2 GB, however the laptop will not post with more then 512mb installed. I suspect that this is an artificial limitation imposed by gateway rather then a hardware limitation; however I lack the technical ability to confirm and possibly correct this in time.
I am supposed to get this sent out Monday,
Would anyone here possibly be willing to take a look at the bios and see if there is a limit on memory set, and if so lift that limitation?
Thank you for any help you can provide to me.
Thanks

Hi Ashrond,

the RAM is limited by the TOLUD register in the BIOS , i haven't tried to modify this register before and i don't knew what values should be set to this register.
sorry for this.
