Thanks Zeuspaul (reply to my BSOD problems:)

It is the Pioneer DR-503S.

Have indeed tried each device independently (same problems) and each has its own SCSI ID.

Here's a more complete rundown:

Bh6 MB
Boxed Celeron 266 (step 0)
Kingston 128 SDRAM with 16 Samsung 10 ns chips
NT sp 3, (tried with both BM and regular IDE drivers)
Symbios 810 Fast SCSI adapter (NCR 810 chip,) native SP3 driver
2 maxtor 2880s on primary IDE, maxtor 2880 master on 2d channel with 6x Cd-Rom as slave
ActionTec ISA v.90 winmodem
Matrox PCI Mystique video card, newest drivers
Netlux PCI Fast NIC
Ensoniq AudioPCI

I've tried the SCSI with both a HPIICX scanner and a Pinoeer DR-503S CD-R. At first I thought it may be insufficient termination issues, but even with both devices disabled I'm still getting the errors. They seem to crop up only when I'm doing significant disk read/writes, which may suggest IDE problems (?)

I'm pretty sure it isn't the RAM, tho other sharp folks have echoed your caution. All the same problems happen at 66 mhz, and these chips are brand new, lifetime gauranteed, and supposedly good to 103 mhz (according to the BH6/BX6 page.) Then again, I still am within the warranty exchange period from Comp USA...

Thanks for the links. Any further thoughts welcome, as always.
