Interesting again. Did you go from CAS2 memory timing to CAS3?
The 133 MHz should be more tolerant of faster (CAS2) timings,
but that doesn't appear to be the case.
I ran my experiment, and both my sticks of PC100 (ECC & not)
give about the same APIC errors. I might try dropping back
to CAS3 and see if that makes a difference.
