32M failing is mem unstable 95% of the time. Does it pass HCI memtest?
Thanks for helping,

I raised the NB voltage to 1.643 -- still fails

"Does it pass HCI memtest?" I just down loaded this test and will run it later, but I did run Memtest86+ V2.01 and passed.

Also I have another observation when looking at CPU-Z 1.47 I’m seeing a slight fluctuation in the core speed field between 4199.9 and 4200.2 and in the rated fsb field I’m seeing movement between 2099.8 – 2100.1 is this normal or should this be rock solid?

Here are all my current settings, do you see any glairing problems?
