5) If things work, then turn on XMP profile 1 and reboot.
5.1) make sure the voltage if needed shows as updated, if not then flip to manual mode and all the parms stay the way of profile, but then bump up the volts to what is required for ram.
5.2) if not work, see #6


6) "BUY G.SKILL PC3-1600 7-7-7-18 2X2GB" I run just perfectly at 400(1600) at those timmings and even a tad less than profile #1

Hey Dual,

Half the stuff you mentioned I already did. Even with EFI turned off my F10 command doesn't work anymore in bios.

I already have Patriot Viper 1600 that I removed because I need 4 Gigs.

I haven't played with mem settings yet because I'm at work.

I will try to do a manual tweak with the mem tonight. Where's HPET? I forget that one.

Thanks,
