killed PART of my ram?

ya.. i have 2 sticks of 128 installed and a 256 installed also
and only get 416mb of ram that shows up..

anyways.. i swapped the ram around.. and all that other crap.. this started AFTER I was changing my fsb speeds..

Try pulling all but one stick out and see what each one displays for memory size at boot up. Then switch to another. If they all read normal, set your bios to defaults and try again.

did it just now.. found out its one of the 128's acting fubar.. this same stick gave me trouble before.. and now i think it doesnt wanna work at all anymore

a couple of the pins on one of the memory peices looks like it was mealted/soldered(blobs of metal).. could that be the problem?
