Combined with an Abit board, I suspect it is running at tweaked specs. Also take a look at the capacitors on your mainboard, the nforce2 chipset is from a time where abit used bad caps on their mainboards. In your situation I would force the memory to run at DDR333 instead of DDR400, which is in sync with the FSB for your CPU. For the rest you could tune your BIOS settings to use SPD for setting latencies instead of "user defined" settings. _______________________________________________ arch mailing list [email protected] http://www.archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
Sorry for the late respond. So today I checked my BIOS settings. I changed "Memory Freq" from Auto to SPD and it seems more stable. I'm going to do further testing in FreeBSD which I have experinced most chrashed in (hopefully due to my old RAM). But I will say thanks for now for all you help. :) -- Cheers - Mikkel Poulsen [proud Linux user]
