I currently have 2 PC2100 DDR 256MB 266mhz of RAM and I wanted to upgrade with another 512. So i bought 1 kingston PC3200/PC2700/PC2100 with 512MB DDR and 400mhz.
The problem i am having is that only sometimes when I restart my computer every program that tries to run will crash saying something like system reference error, but if I reboot my system a few times everything seems to work fine.
I think it might be the different bus speeds, but I thought that the 400mhz would clock down automatically. Is there anything I can do to solve this problem? Do you think the computer is having a hard time determining the bus speed of the ram?
Do you think i should go into the BIOS and try to limit the RAM bus to only 266mhz instead of having it on auto.
thanks for the help
