Albert, "...precision 620 dell system. Our IT people wanted to increase the memory to 1GB. System did not recognize the memory. Is that what you mean by flaky?" I have on my desk a Dell Optiplex GX110. One-two times a week any application can give me a message, something like "application fatal error, memory referenced at 0x040df01e cannot be read". This could be called "flaky", but I am not that picky. But what I meant with regard to memory is you plug one 512MB stick - it seems fine, you plug 2 single-sided 128MB sticks - fine. But try 2 sticks of dual-sided 256MB - invalid page fault in Photoshop, or PowerPoint, or whatever in 30 minutes of run. That's I would call "flaky". Regards, - Ali
