I have been using the same memory in the machine since 2004. I ran
memtest for one complete test cycle and didn't get any error reports. I
know I should let it run longer, but I'm trying a couple of other tests...
1. Removed a Belkin OmniView PRO2 4-Port KVM switch (F1DA104T)
2. Didn't start my samba server
and I'm having better luck. I'll report back either way.
Thanks for the suggestion,
Pete
