With Generic ram it`s pot luck,I`m using the MSI K7T PRO with Crucial memory & it`s rock solid(as to be since I`m a gamer).

I have a MSI K7T Pro and I bought a stick of 128 MB PC-133 CAS 3 Micron memory. System has been running rock solid. gotbeef, i would suggest that you just pay the little extra ~$15 to get some brand name memory. Headaches from having generic memory just isn't worth the money you will be saving.

DeezNtz is correct it`s worth the extra cost for good quality ram there is nothing worst in buying cheap ram & finding out it does not work on your board, with good brands like Crucial etc ,you know that won`t be a problem. If you have the generic PC133 ram already well you can try it,but be prepared to buy decent ram if you get problems,you may be alright with your generic ram, I have heard of boards being ok,but definetly if you are going to buy new ram ,get good quality & avoid generic ram.
