The memory is not Kingston memory, so that is a possibility. I just put the 2600+ into an A7V333 with DDR2100 memory and it failed the same way as on the A7N8X-E. I think I shall try to get some Kingston memory and see if it works.
Before assuming the memory is at fault you should try raising memory voltage. Some boards just won't work with "standard" memory voltage. For this reason, you also may wish to consider a high quality power supply if you are using the one that came with your case.
O'k my turn. I have two Asus A7n8x mobos wboth running M$ XP with one a dual boot Sus 9.0 Pro. The first with the AMD 2600+ was extremely memory sensitive and failed repeatedly till I upgraded the memory. The second the Linux box with the XP 3000 was equally troublesome till I bought Corsair! In my case I also had troubles with an XFX FX 5700 vid card until I downgraded it to an Asus TI4200. After I switched vids it installe fairly ho hum but later lost connectivity. I still have problems with a lost connection but that is another thread and no one has been able to give any advice. Donald correll
Hmmmmmmmmm..... I shall try to get different memory, after that I'm going Gigabyte on the motherboard. On the ethernet side, I'm using the reversed engineered nvidia driver "forcedeth" part of kernel 2.6.x, running 2.6.6-rc1 currently and it's stable at least with a 2200+.
