Hi there:
Just got a new Kingston (value RAM) 512MB 333MHz DDR chip & installed into bay 2 of an ASUS A7V8X-X/Socket A/AGP 8X/DDR 400/333FSB motherboard.
In bay 1, I already have 512MB PC2700 32X64 DDR333 - included w/ the motherboard & chip purchase (don't know much more about it - probably generic).
Upon installation, everything works, counts 1GB RAM on boot, I have a memory monitor (for win98se - memory hog) that says I have over 700MB free at any time, but in a short time after playing around on internet, email, etc, I get BSOD saying system resources/memory running very low. This never happened until I installed the new RAM. Could there be a conflict? Should I switch the chips & put the Kingston in bay 1?
I'm doing a little research, but I was wondering if anyone has had any experience & knows what I can try in the mean time?
thanks
