I can run everthing fine no problems. Game, Prime95, Drmem, Seti. But as soon as I run the Memory Benchmark in Sandra 2002 my system will crash 9 outa 10 tries. Any reason for this. I am OC but not to the point the Ram should be strugglin. I have Kingmax PC2700. Need a clue here.

Possibly your ram isn't stable.

Try a stabler ram setting and see if it goes.

well I thought that until I have had 4 different sticks of ram and all of them do it.

What FSB are you running at? You may have pushed the ram a little to hard. 2 possible solutions to try, 1 back down on the FSB a little and increase the multipier to keep the same cpu speed, 2 try increasing the I/O voltage a hair.

You need more power... try uping the memory/cpu volts by +.1

If I am running ram rated at 166FSB. If I am not near 166FSB why do I need more power? I am only running at 149FSB right now. SHouldn't I be able to run that with out a power boos. + my mOBO doesn't support Vcore adjustments.

maybe you need to put up the fsb a little higher, your PCI and AGP bus might be running outta wack (too fast), some boards have a divider thingy in the bios, but if you dont, put it up to 166, then PCI is back to 33Mhz, and AGP is back to 66Mhz and fsb is wee wee wee

Sounds like a strange solution, but ill try it. Can't hurt anything. Ill just drop the Multi and see how it goes.
