"When I put in 2 stick of Crucial 256mb PC2100, one single sided, one double sided, they run in dual channel mode.

Any thoughts on this?"

Lou, from what I've seen so far you have to start up the computer on 2100, and then go into the bios and change the memory MHz settings. That's just what I've picked up from the threads on the SQ800, and the SINXP.

I wanted to say thanks to zShowtimez for replying back. Along with all the other toys I need to get I've been "professionally" informed that a Radeon 9700 isn't really a good idea for "Inventor". So now I'm looking under my futon for "nVidia Quatro 900XL" money. So zShowtimez was dead-on about more power 😱 It's kind of embarrassing, but it was also only $30.00 bucks, so it isn't such a big deal.

Also Bigtoe got his one up to 203Mhz FSB

One word: AWESOME! This means that 655 infact overclocks better then GB.

But can it run Prescot CPU's???

I would think so but it remains to be seen.

Yes, in Bios.
