OK, first of all, the Barton in my sig died. I'm back using my XP2200, which I slightly oc, 11x166.
I picked up a used mobile Barton 2600 but haven't put it in yet.
I also picked up (new) 2x512 Corsair value ram DDR400, PC3200. This is all so I can go to 200 fsb.
Today, I popped in the new ram. Everything fired up fine (I wasn't sure if it would)
As I was checking out things with cpu-z, my Asus probe started beeping about every minute. You can see from the picture that the fans would drop out. After a while things straightened out and every thing was fine. Then it happened again and I realized it happened when I turned on cpu-z.
Whats up with that? Does cpu-z load down the system? Is this real? Has anyone else run in to this? This never happened til today when I changed out the ram.
Also, in cpu-z, on the SPD tab (whats that stand for anyway?) it show the 2 stick of mem in slots 1 and 2. I put them in 1 and 3. It does say dual channel in the Memory tab.
