Re: Old PC says it can take 2Gb of memory, but only sees 1Gb
If it's the original Foxconn motherboard (and not some wierd OEM variant), then updating the BIOS might help. NB. There are several versions anyway, with some extra letters

I thought that heads had been banged together over standards compliance, after the various debacles that plagued PC-66/100/133 and DDR1, but then, maybe not.
