Try and check it with memcheck86 (think I got the name > right :)) I used memtest and it showed a bunch of errors on my ancient 128 MiB chip. So I removed it, but even with the (presumably good -- only let memtest run for about 3 minutes) 256 MiB I have the same problems. I don't run anything heavily graphical, so RAM rarely got up to 50% usage back with 384 MiB. Hence, I should be fine (I long gave up hoping to play games on my machine); but I have the same problems, with programs taking long to start and strange happenings caused by gcc. Any other ideas? Vlad PS: Unless I got it wrong, it's memtest86 and it proved very valuable. By the way, does it ever stop? After two hours and 13 thousand errors I got fed up and removed the chip. -- How's my English? How about my Netiquette? Do mail me if something is wrong with my behaviour.
