I keep getting the same response you did, and right now it looks like RAM. They
say one of the modules is bad. But I've removed the stick of memory and put it in
the second slot, and the same erroe message is displayed. Are both of my slots bad.
I have a 133chip speed. How do you figure out if it is operating at 100chip speed,
and how do you fix it. This error is driving me nuts.
Thanks, John
