Are you using a HIGHMEM4G or HIGHMEM64G kernel? And have you tried it with
the memory swapped -- i.e. swap the 2GB you pulled with the 2GB that works,
just to make sure it isn't a hardware problem?

Hello everyone,

I have a Dell with 4GB of memory. I have successfully installed FC2 on
it, but when I reboot, the USB mouse and keyboard are lost, and the
machine hangs. There are no PS/2 mouse/keyboard ports on the machine.

If I reduce the memory down to 2GB, the machine will function. At 3GB
or 4GB, the machine hangs on boot. I am using a SMP kernel.

Anyone got a clue on this one?

Thanks,
Mark
