And verily, didst Mike D. Frenz announce to the hordes:
Hello,
we had no "crashing" problems with a S2885 Bios Rev.1.01 and 8GB (8xCorsair PC2700) bought from TYAN with the board. It sounds to me that your memory isn't compatible with the TYAN board.
Trouble is, it's on the list, almost. It's the same samsung chips as some others that are in the list for 1gig (although the ones we had were from a company (ventura) on the list only listed for 512, but as it's the same chips, they should work.) If memory is of the correct type (ECC Registered), correct frequency (333Mhz) and even the same chipset, it seems to me to be incredibly sloppy motherboard design if it STILL won't work.
