The system has been working okay for half a year, the setup is:
Abit VH6T
1.1a Celeron/tualatin running at 1.41GHz, 1.625V, 128FSB
Crucial 256Mb pc133
Yesterday I wanted to add a stick of PNY 512Mb pc133. I took the crucial out and was trying to put the PNY in the same slot, stupid me, the RAM direction was WRONG, I think it was not snapped in comfortably.
Powered on, no post, a BURNING SMELL.
Changed back to crucial, now the system was messed up. It won't post at default 1.1GHz or anything higher than that. It can only post at 733Mhz (66X11), and when it does boot up, it's extremely unstable, all kinds of errors, automatically reboots.
I am postitive the Video card, hard drive and the RAM are okay, searched for burn marks, but didn't find any.
Comments? Ideas? Big Thanks!
