This shouldn't a no-no as long as you force your speed to be 100 - PC133 chips should run fine at 100. How is your bios set now? I'd force it to 100 and then run memtest86 and see what happens. You might even want to try memtest86 before you change it to confirm that it fails now but works if you drop it to 100. I'd guess (and it's only a guess!) that "by spd" would probe the chips to see what the speed is. If the PC133 chip was found first, it might have used the 133 setting. Which chip did you pull to get everything working right? Was it the PC133 by any chance? -- Ed Wilts, Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:ewilts@xxxxxxxxxx Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
