    Oh ye of little faith...Athlons are grand.

    Elexes, dont take this the wrong way, but FFS learn to C O M M U N I C A T E.

    "got a new machine, somethings wrong, says something on boot, what do ya think" is a bit tough to troubleshoot.. smile.gif

    Sounds like memory to me...

    Had that prob once when two different RAM sticks were in...MHz at different speeds or some such thing..

    So I did the technical thing and swopped em around smile.gif

    Flyin since...go figure?

    I think your right. Sutty got some memory for his that didnt work at all with the existing stuff. The machine randomly crashed. Try different memory, and use one dimm or 2 identical dimms

    Could be a dodgy CPU. Common symptom of overheating is freezing and crashing at random times
