It will start fine with 8, but after a few seconds I get bus errors and a few new coasters pop out. I've tried staggering startup a few seconds, but the best I can do is go from 4 bad ones to 3 bad ones. I'm thinking if I had something other than a p100 with all of 64M ram things would work a little better. Still, a nice way to save the $499 license fee that a nero windows license would cost to burn 8 CDs.
