Another attack on the problem might be to set your BIOS up for slower memory
access.  Or lower your motherboard bus speed.  Best bet, however, is that
you have (at least) one memory SIMM that is a litlle "under spec" and needs
to be replaced.

Go to a GOOD brand of 60 nsec EDO. Some of the CHEAP stuff that you can get
in Internet auctions just does not perform properly.
