K6-2 is a good partner for G400?. Please, tell me!

Jtracy,

From the previous posts you put, I would have to say that my opinion is that it stems from the RAM config you say you have. 2 DIMMS of different size from different manufacture is a recipe for trouble in my cookbook. Have you tried anything since you posted the original description?

Since the last post, I have tested the 2 ram chips separately. I tried playing with only the 128mb DIMM and got the same results. Unfortunately, when I put in the 32mb DIMM, none of my OpenGL games would load at all; just a black screen and a lockup. I'm thinking that it's doing that just because there was not enough real memory (I had a Windows managed swapfile in addition to the 32mb), because it didn't freeze like that when I had both the DIMMs in the machine.

I wish I could put some other chips in there, but the only other one I have is a PC66 DIMM in my mom's computer.
