      HAHA! That was that crappy TX motherboard. Is was so generic, they named it after the chipset!

        Some corsair xms(and others mem will not have the SPD read correclty by some MOBO's. Seems like I have that combination, hopefully manualy setting the parameters correctly will fix my problems.

        May be worth checking Novdid.
        I fiddled around with the settings, reinstalled w2k etc, etc...I just couldn't get it stable.

        Then I thought to my self why not set the FSB at something under 166MHz. That was it, anything above 155 was unstable. I decided to put a small fan on the northbridge sink and, voilá.

        It's pretty bad that Epox didn't put a good enough cooler on the NB though.

        Other than that, the board is real nice.

          My NF7-S is great! After sorting out my cooling, I'm sure the Barton 2500 XP will be doing around 3000XP speeds

            I have sorted out my cooling long ago.

            I have an alpha PAL8045, and and have taken care of the nothbridge. That chewing gum under the NB sink is long gone.

            I'm aiming for 3200+ speeds!(I have also an XP2500+
