Thanks for the info. I just remembered some important info I left out of my earlier message. While editing my ./.cshrc file in vi, suddenly the file became corrputed with really wierd charaters. I'm going to bring the system down and double check the memory settings. FYI, the current memory settings were running fine when I was overclocking the bus to 75MHz.
