    Hot deal on NON conductive Athlon XP/MP SHIM 4.99 shipped!(Update: Beware! anyone that bought look inside!)

    I just checked mine with an OHM meter and it is NONconductive. Of course, if I scratched them deep enough I'm sure they would conduct, but I'm not going to.

    Received mine today. Seems to be in good shape. I was worried it might get bent during shipping. Check before installing. Bent shim could = burnt CPU

    "Raycer: Are you going to return the memory to CC, or try to get a replacement from centron? You might want to consider trying the memory in another mobo if you have access to another with DDR access..." I'm just returning the memory to CC. I wish I did have access to another DDR board...

    Bad luck for me. My 2 sticks didn't work. BSODs out the wahzoo. Gigabyte GA-7DX, tried each by themselves still a no go. Fail safe settings in bios. Updated bios F6 Worked at this awhile before replying, wanted to be sure it was the memory. I'm sure now, put in a stick Crucial and all is well...

    *DEAD* Centon 256 DDR is back in stock ($39.99) at circuitcity.com

    I should not have called it 2nd rate ram, It's just not a well known brand (to me). I bought 2 sticks so I'm hoping it will be great.
