It ended up being my cache, my cache was good but not fast enough for the 200mhz 604e.Pulled cache completely and runs stable now, just without my L2 cache till I find another one. Everyone said get a 512k or 1meg yet if you get the 256k out of the stock 7300 604e it comes with a faster L2 cache yet still at 256k(my guess is any stocked 604e machine came with that faster cache to help the stability issues yet still 256k.)Jag's web site is selling the 512 and 1megs.
