Amazingly the system is absolutely rock solid. I thought I got the
good end of a bargain when I only paid $100 for the XMS memory which
is rated for 2.5-8-3-3 speeds and I am able to run it at full
agressive settings.

For my first time on Corsair, i'm hooked.

something:

Thanks for the info. I actually feel stupid now because I found the
cause of the problems. Orginially the PC wouldn't boot, but I triple
checked all wires and found out the 4 Pin power connector for P4's
wasn't fully plugged in. It was about 75% plugged in but not snapped
in place.

That solved all of my issues. I'm now running the XMS memory at the
2-2-2-5 timings and after an hour of CPU stress testing it is working
beautifully. I will run memtest x86 afterwards just to followup.


Oooh, nice.

I'll have to give that a try. I must admit that I have been meaning to
change my timings to some more aggressive settings, but I wanted to
check the machine was 101% stable first.

Dodgy.
