    Don't mess with the BIOS. Put the memory back in the way you have it stated here. Start the computer, right click "My Computer" and select properties. Under the general tab it will tell you how much memory you have. If it says that you only have 128, then the memory could be shot. Try the other stick of 512 the same way. If you still have only 128 then ask about the BIOS.
