The system runs fine with the original 128 in Bank 0 and the 256 in Bank 2. Putting the other 128 chip that had been in Bank 2 and both of the other chips into Bank 1 causes Windows to show Explorer errors. Any idea of how to verify this or to persuade Bank 1 to join in the fun? mjh To unsub or change your email settings: //www.freelists.org/webpage/pctechtalk To access our Archives: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/PCTechTalk/messages/ //www.freelists.org/archives/pctechtalk/ For more info: //www.freelists.org/cgi-bin/list?list_id=pctechtalk
