It has been so long since I used Memtest86+ I forget what I need to download and how to install it on a floppy! I may just download the UBCD, but I dont which to download from their either. I can already tell that this is definately a RAM problem, but it wouldnt hurt running Memtest to be sure of it.

I guess I will check PDP and OCZ's website for compatible RAM. I wanted to put Patriot in this system before, and I believe you and I had talked about that PR, dont remember for sure... Anyways, thanks. I'll keep this post up to date. Most likely I am going to have to put the old 2100+ CPU back in to keep this desktop up and running till I get the new RAM.

Thanks,

Michael
