How much ddr does xp home support? I have 3 512 sticks
and it only sees 2, is this a bios issue or xp home?

Far more than your motherboard almost certainly does - 4GB - the BIOS has
nothing to do with RAM. Are you sure your motherboard supports 512MB is
every slot? If it does, then it comes down to compatibility - are the
modules identical in every respect?
