I like Puppy linux as a place to start.  Probably Wary.


Yes, I have used Puppy in the past - it is worth a shot since I am getting desperate . .

The other thing (which might just have been coincidence) is that when I booted on the USB for the LiveCD, it did seem to stay up without any problems - but the PC was not in that state for long periods of time so I might just have been lucky at those times . .

Thanks,

Phil.

They could be. memtest86+ to find out. Another possibility is they're the
wrong SIMMs for the hardware, i.e. wrong timing or voltage. There might be
BIOS settings for adjusting this.
