Thanks again for your help, but is it a requirement/limitation by the CPU that can cause this incompatibility as well? If unbuffered, non-ecc memory will do, then I will probably be getting the Corsiar TWINX1024-3200XLPRO. Again, thanks for all your help.

Okay... So... I've been looking everywhere, and I'm still confused as all of hell. I'll simply leave it at this... I have an Athlon 64-FX53 CPU, and an Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe Motherboard. WHAT KIND OF MEMORY DO I NEED FOR THIS?? The main confusion comes in when I have to try and select either...

Q: Are you sure you're using a BTX form-factor powersupply? Sounds a bit odd... but the BTX form-factor is simply a 24-pin ATX power cord. I bought a Janus ATX case by Logisys (from newegg, of course) with a 480w powersupply only to realize i had to go out and get another type. Right now I'm...

Better question** (found the HCL btw) Why is it when I check compatibility for the AMD64 FX series it states for unbuffered ram? Rather... anybody know a good cheap ram I should use for my system... as I am currently in the market for something to run this thing on now... AMD64 FX-53 939-pin...

Okay... been trying to look for it and have yet to find it (otherwise still waiting on the RMA for the RAM stick...) Anybody know where I can find a compatability list for various hardwares? I've seen it SOMEWHERE in these forums, but have yet to be able to find it again; it's set up...

Oy... more problems with this ram( or at least i hope). An error occured during (believe it or not) an accidental overclocking, and the computer has become so instable that it can't install an operating system (let alone run one) without an irql_not_less_or_equal and an...

I have an old(sort of) emachine with these same ports, which you will quickly discover their usage if you ever get a digital camera. SD memory card, Memory Stick, Microdrive, and your usual USB 2.0 port... SD memory cards are usually what you'd find in new digital cameras, and memory sticks are...

PC3200 = DDR 400 From what I can think of it looks to be an emachine-specific type of ram; is that the kind of computer you have? Something like that is more than likely to be unbuffered; most Registered ECC RAM sticks are VERY new and for high-performance machines.

I'll go ahead and tell you that Outlook Express may be one of your main problems; this program has a history of causing serious problems, especially due to the fact that it internally opens your email before you do, which has its obvious implications. Netscape is just another web-surving...

Wooo... finally found the root of the problem. A few days ago i installed windows x64 beta to see how it was, and amazingly didn't crash with the machine check errors; merely popped up a warning that i should check the eventlog for additional information, which it never gives. Another thing is...

No goback... this problem has occured even when i've jumped it up for the sole purpose to play dawn of war, lol. Drivers have been updated, and the problem is a lot more rare than usual... but it's still a pain to have to see it. I'll probably be getting some more ram soon; another 512 to keep...

Single stick of memory; it commonly occurs with games like Half-Life 2, Dawn of War, Medal Of Honor: Allied Assault, and USAF Flight Simulator. All of these games have a minimum requirement of 256 mb of ram, with Half Life 2 recommended for 512mb... This could possibly be a heat-problem...

DKL01; My very first suggestion would be to just check to make sure all your IDE cables are in place completely... If that isn't it, check to make sure you can see your hard drive in your BIOS. Another suggestion would be to set your current hard drive as a slave in another computer to see if...

Ookay... I've been looking around on this site and noted that this is the best place to attempt to find the answer to this damnable problem... Your usual blue screen of death... Machine_Check_Exception with the following chain: 0x0000009c (0x00000000, 0x80540770, 0xc4584000, 0x00000833)...
