I have the same problem described here.
I tried the memory in a friends computer and it works fine.
Occasionally I can get the computer working, but not for long. It then locks up with all the green lights on. Only thing top get out of this is to switch of the power supply. Then it's back to not working.
Download the Plus version burn it to a CD , make your machine boot from the CD by changing the Bios
Boot it on the Memtest disk and it will run through a series of really intensive checks on the machines memory , that will tell you what the memory is doing
Also try removing and re-seating all the connectors on the motherboard in case there is a poor connection

I just put together a pc for my little girl. Everything seems to be hooked up right as far as I can tell. The pc is getting power, lights on, cpu fan is spinning, video card fan is spinning, but the pc fan doesnt work nor does the cdrom. I've checked and double checked all the connections but still the same. In the bios none of the drives are showing up either. Is this some sort of power issue? It is all the same parts I have used together before without any probs, but this time it's just not working.

I have a dvr harddrive that came out of a retail store that was using it to record video. Since it is so large I'd like to convert it to my pc and use it as the main harddrive. I've tried it but all the pc does is click every couple of seconds. Why won't it let me load windows xp on it and start fresh?

I forgot to say in my last post that I do know about using Cntrl-+ or scroll to enlarge type size on the page. It just seems that setting the page width right, as you told me, wouldn't minimize the font size. ~Chuck
