You may want the PC shop to phone 1-877-KINGSTON because they told me
(I phoned them over a DDR problem and decided to ask about this as
well) that the part no. is for a Compaq or HP computer and is not
compatible with your eMachine 600is. They also said that the 600is
can't use any module bigger than 128MB, not even double-sided 256MB
ones. If the PC shop told you that the KTH6501/256 was compatible,
then they owe you an exchange or 100% refund.

Larry,
I know there a memory chip that will double the memory. I read this
on a web site. This chips double the Maximum memory in your system.
Some it will work on and some it won't.


I have a kingston in my machine by the way. I have emachine 2040w and
it is working.
