    I've lost a stick of Sdram (PC133 128MB). I took it out of a pc with a broken mobo intending to use it in another pc when that one became available. I know I put it in a "safe place", but now that I've got the other pc I can't find the memory.

    Someone suggest some "safe places", it might just jog my memory.

    Political correctness is based on the principle that it's possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

    Safe places for me are normally:

    Top desk drawer in an anti-static bag.
    box at the end of the desk.
    by the phone! (never lose stuff there).

    Check the top of the tower?? had that happen once, found it after an hour of searching

    by your new computer.
    in a drawer where you keep all your stuff.
    in a box that you got something new out of.
    somewhere close to yoru wallet.
    next to your tv.

    Truly, I say, it'll be in the last place you look.

    this post is guaranteed 100% parrot-free

    boneyard(attic,garage,closet).
    shelf that family does not go to.
    special connector-wire box under bed.
    glove compartment of car.
    sitting out in the open in your room
    still in the broken mobo
    calm down,think of the ram, prayer to St Anthony
    Check your pockets in jackets and sweaters
    inquire family members...who may have "moved" your memory
    misfiled with other parts of old pc.
    disappeared like a sock in the dryer...check drawers of other
    family members
    cat or dog has it and you are out of luck
    really...sometime if you just go about...it may come to you
    where it is, or has been hiding
    Good luck!

    it is the small things that usually drive us mad

    Lost your memory lynx? Oh noes!
    Nothing's worse than hardware amnesia...

    Lets try a little hypnosis to boost your powers of recall...

    You are feeling sleepy.... sleeeeeeepy... sllllleeeeeeeeepppyyyyyyyyyy.....

    You are back at your work area.
    You are removing the RAM.
    You are putting it somewhere safe.
    Visualize the safe place.

    There it is.

    That'll be fiddy bucks for the hypnotherapy, or next week you will become...
    A CHICKEN!

    *snaps fingers*
