Hi,

ok, I finally gave up (almost :)). You are my last hope to solve my
problem.
I know this has been asked and answered many times here, and I read
all the posts, tried all the hints, but ...

Here are the details:
- I have ASUS motherboard A7V600-x, VIA KT400(A)/600 chipset with 1
RAM module (Kingston 512MG, PC2300 DDR400). This worked fine for 3
years now.
- bought new RAM module, same speed, same type, same manufacturer,
etc. After installing this into my comp, the story become interested.
I use Win XP and after working for some time (15-20 min), the PC is
simply restarted. Definitely I blame additional RAM, because
everything worked fine before.
- tried some hints like:
- test with only new RAM module ==> OK
- put 1 module to slot 1, the other into slot 3 ==>NOK
- rotate the modules ==> NOK
- upgrade BIOS with the latest version ==> NOK

I really need an advice - what else I can do? I haven't play with
voltage settings yet, but I don't know how to do it, and I'm not sure
it will help at all. Is anybody else experiencing the same problems?

Thanks in advance.

Yeah, I forgot this:
I also performed a RAM test with MemTest-86 which found no errors. But
crashes are still here :( .
