Well, you said the behaviour of your system varied according to how much RAM was in it. It definitely sounds as if there is something marginal with your motherboard. If it works properly with 4 x 16M then it might be best to leave it that way and get a new motherboard when you need more than 64M Regards, Irvine Short http://www.pcm.co.za/homepage/ishort/irv_home.html Technical Support Professional Computer Manufacturers Cape Town, South Africa Tel: ++27-21-235084 Fax ++27-21-235089
