Well, I ended up setting the mem speed to 83% and everything ran fine. I don't get any of the program crashes that I was getting and the system is running very stable. The Gigabyte MB that I got for testing didn't like the memory even more than the ASUS. I was getting around 1500 errors every...

No, I don't think so... I have done what ASUS is saying also. From ASUS Support: Please enter BIOS-advanced-advanced chipset features-system performance, set it to USER DEFINED, then set CPU external frequency to 200MHZ, set memory frequency to AUTO, set memory timing to "user...

Well, I tested all last night with the memtest86. It ran 5 passes and had around 500 errors. Is any errors acceptable or should I see zero errors? I can use the system running XP without hangups, but I think that when I stress the system, I will see errors. What next??? Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback. It has been a little while since I built a system and wasn't sure. You know the good thing about standards is that there are so many to choose from. I thought when they were talking about 400MHz FSB that it should be a multiplyer of 5.5 not 11. Anywho.... The...

To start, yes I have checked the jumper...... I am having problems with my new A7N8X-E Deluxe. I first purchased the MB, AMD 3200+ Barton Proc, Kingston Memory, Western Digital SATA drive and a NVIDIA Graphic and from newegg.com. I had problems from the start.... First, the MB wasn't...
