Thanks for the advice setras. I've been building my own systems for over 10 years now and this has just totally stumped me. I think I will go the route of RMA and stop banging my head against the wall :) Thanks again for the response.
I reseat one of my RAM modules. It's really strange I have everything running at stock settings (no overclocking yet) and the system has ran fine since I built it back in the first week of April. A few days ago I went to turn the machine on - powers up but no post, no beeps, no nothing. First...
I just purchased that RAM and installed it on Monday. On stock settings it has been rock solid so far. I have 3GB of it and I am using it in Vista and XP (dual boot). It overclocks very well and stable. Good luck.
Can someone assist me with the differences of these cards and what would be the best bang for my buck? They pretty much look the same to me. Thanks in advance for any help offered.
