I've assembled a PC from scratch that was needed to act as a temporary
File/Print(Windows 2000 Server -It will be used as an Exchange Server
at the local ISP later on, so memory will be a bit of an issue),
however it doesn't boot up with 2x256MB modules, and returns a
bluescreen error on startup, mentioning that the BIOS isn't ACPI
compatable, so I flashed the BIOS with the latest one from MSI, but
unfortunately this didn't turn up any better results(it works fine
when you switch back to a single 256MB Module). I suspect it might be
the cheap RAM, though there is no way to be sure, at least not without
experience, so if anyone else out there know's/experienced a similar
problem & solution, your help would be greatly appreciated.
Here are the PC specs:
MSI MS-6340M Motherboard
AMD Duron 800MHz
NOVA 256MB PC133 SDRAM(2 modules don't work)
Cheetah PCI EN1207D-TX/WOL 10/100Mb LAN card
Seagate U8 5400 17.2GB HDD (ATA/66 Mode)
52x CDROM
