It is now causing blue screens in windows, and freezes fbsd, pclinuxos, knoppix, fedora live. I have run the x86 mem test for more than a day, and found no problems with the 4GB ram (2GB X 2). I am wondering why the memtest does not freeze???? could it be that only one core is causing the problem? At any rate I wanted to replace it with AMD Turion II Ultra M660 TMM660DBO23GQ 2.7GHz Dual-Core Mobile CPU Processor, Socket S1 Will I be running into any problems? Would the heat be an issue?
