Ge0ph 0 Posted April 20, 2000 Do you have a high quality power supply? I don't have an Athalon but I have read that the power supply can be the root of a lot of these problems. Share this post Link to post
DosFreak 2 Posted April 21, 2000 Could be the RAM...........Try stickin' yo' RAM in a different slot. Also adjust the memory settings in the bios. Share this post Link to post
