Poop I'll run that test in a bit. Lemme go off on a tangent for a bit first. I found this nice little app called " Speccy ' and when I ran it I discovered I'm running two entirely different sets. Here's the info and it's making me wonder if that's a big part of my problem. Don't axe me how I ended up with that mix cuz I have no idea.

Slot 1 & 2 each have one stick in 'em. Both are...
Type DDR2
Size 1024 MBytes
Manufacturer Avant Technology
Max Bandwidth PC2-5300 (333 MHz)

Slots 3 & 4 each have one stick in 'em. Both are...
Type DDR2
Size 1024 MBytes
Manufacturer Hyundai Electronics
Max Bandwidth PC2-4300 (266 MHz)

Here's the link to Speccy download if anyone is interested ( freeware ). It's better than Everest Home Edition as far as I'm concerned.

Guy I am not surprised you have two different types of DDR's in your machine.. Often stores will mix and match DDR's knowing the faster speeds will slow down to the older technology and are often cheaper then the older stuff, so it doesn't matter as long as your MOBO can handle both as long as they are the same technology.. Hence you could not use DDR1 with DDR2 but could well us DDR2 + DDR2 as long as they are acceptable to the MB..

That said, some have issues with using the controller on Hyundai DDR2 and Samsung DDR2.. It really can be that touchy..

Poopa, pricing for SSD Drives are a part of what I sell at the OEM level. Just one segment of many products we represent

Pricing is in the tank right now due to what I mentioned earlier about a transition between 3GB to 6 GB write speed and a dump on the market but it wont last.. As soon inventory is gone you will see a drastic price increase again for a while..
