Okay, here are the specs on my system. I hope somebody
reads this since alot have already replied---
CPU - Athlon XP 2000+ 1.7ghz
Mobo - MSI KT3 Ultra-2 w/Updated BIOS
Mem - At first, 1 stick 256ddr PC2100 CORSAIR mem.
Later - 1 Stick 256ddr PC2100 ECC Corsair Mem &
1 stick 256ddr PC2100 ECC Simpletech Mem.
HD - MAXTOR 7200rmp 40GB Hd
PSU - ANTEC 430watt
Soundcard - Sound Blaster AUDIGY - Gamer
Video Card - AOpen Nvidia GeForce4 MX440 64meg DDR.
Now I'm not Overclocking anything and my system stays
pretty cool as far as I can tell. I do have it set in my
bios though for the warning on my CPU temp at 75 degrees
Celcius. The fan on my CPU is the original that came with
my chip. I tried pulling out the two ECC sticks & using
the original but the same things happen. Also the games I
played originally were the Demos of Battlefield 1942,
Devestation, & Medal of Honor - Allied Assault. I also
have the full version to Half Life & Counterstrike.. they
crash now along with the others but usually my computer
simply reboots out of nowhere. Also, when my games
crash.. the sound distorts for a brief second and
EVERYTHING freezes.. no ctrl alt del, no nothing. Have to
reset it. It is a royal pain & i'm not sure what to do.
Haven't tried that Memtest.. how does it work?
Thanks -Greg
