Abit AI7 and Mushkin ram problems

[Flatbroke]

Built a P4 3.0c computer powered a by known good Antec Trupower 430W Ps, and ordered a matched pair of 1Gig Mushkin PC3500 222Special from Mushkin. Mb wouldn't boot, ram in dimms 1 and 3, gave me a AF code, so I tried each stick separtely in dimm 1, no change. I researched and found that AF code with Mushkin happened to others. Most suggestions were to put in a diff. type of ram and raise the ram voltage to 2.8 in bios and put the M back in. I had a 12 Kingston HyperX PC2700 that I got into bios with. M ram still wouldnt boot at 2.8v. I used the HyperX to install WinXP Pro, and after, tried the M. It booted, at 2.8v, but seemed slower than 512 HyperX, and am getting random reboots, or lockups as desktop loads. Talked to Mushkin support last Thurs. they claimed no idea what the problem could be, but offered to send me replacement ram to arrive Monday, (ground shipping it looks like). Anyway, anyone have ideas about max realistic voltage on the M?, some AI7 bios setting? Stock settings right now, no overclocking. Right now, by Spd, M 222 says 2.5-2-2 in bios, M ram says #991154. Off to dl Prime95 to run while I have PC2700 in, so I can check rest of system.

RMA'ed the TruePower430W PS. Put in an Enhance 350W, til Antec PS comes back, all is fine.
