Hi and thank for your help, I just upgraded the memory on this Motherboard from 1Gb (2X 512Mb) DDR PC3200 400Mhz to Patriot Extreme Performance 2Gb (2X 1024Gb) DDR2 PC6400 4-4-4-12 Memory I know that the speed of this memory is twice as fast as the old stuff but I have read and was told when I bought it that it was OK to put faster memory in because it will clock it's self down to the FSB speed. The problem is that I think the processor can't keep up and when running either several programs at once or games my system will Blue screen and shut down.
I think I may need to increase or decrease either the speed or voltage on the CPU or the memory. I do not want to make the wrong adjustments and fry something so can you give me an idea what I should do to try and fix this problem?
I know this is crappy Motherboard but it’s free and the best I can do for now since I lost my job six months ago.
Thanks,
Jim O

Warning 2507 : Mainboard has too few memory slots. Upgrading the memory may be difficult or expensive.
Warning 2508 : All memory slots are full. Upgrading the memory may be difficult or expensive.
Tip 2546 : Large memory modules should be ECC/Parity.
