The solution may depend on what OS you used. (E.g. Win98 requires configuration tweaks to use more than half a Gb RAM, other OSs may be similarly limted.) -- Don Phillipson Carlsbad Springs (Ottawa, Canada) | |||||||||||||||||||

At this point you may have already caused file corruption and may need to do a clean OS install after you have gotten the memory stable. Try manually setting the memory timings to higher (slower) values and retest w/Memtest86+ | |||||||||||||||||||
