Allright, thanks and sorry.
It was explained in the original thread that I was odering this RAM specifically for this PC.
Anyways, the RAM is installed and working fine now.
I think I narrowed the problem to the fan on the power supply being gunked up and not working. I got it to spin up once briefly. I have the power supply open and the only spare fan I have, which is too big, blowing on it, and managed to get WinME installed, a new Raedon card up and running (the old one had artifacts from a power jolt) and connected to my router-- posting from it now.
It's really a nice machine and worth the time I'm putting into it(fingers crossed).
I need to track down a fan, and hopefully that's it.
What is the mm equivalent of 3.5"?
Does my assessment that an overheating power supply was causing freezes make any sense?
Sure seems stable now.
Thx . . .
