8krai memory Crash

External Since: Dec 07, 2004 Posts: 1

I Just purchased a New 512 ram PC 2100 for my computer. I have now
(1) 512 Pc2100
(2) 256 PC 2100

If I install all the memory my internet and online games crash
everytime. If I run either the one 512 or the two 256 I have no
problems.. Why would using all 3 cause problems.

I have tried to run with one 512 and one 256 and the problems just
takes longer to pop up but it still does. Any Help??!?

Must be a compitibility issue between the ram sticks. I had the same thing
once on an old bx chipset board. Lock ups like crazy and would not pass
memtest. I had one stick of 128mb and two sticks of 64mb. Either of the
128 would work but not together. I ended up trading the two 64's in for
another 128 and all was well.
