Your memory is unstable, either too tight timings or not enough voltage.

That's normally true, but on occasion I've also found that problems with drivers can cause that same message. Have you updated any of them recently? The fact it happens when you start gaming does suggest memory though.

start with ram put only one stick in if you are running on 2 sticks and see if the error comes back if you don't

i would buy a new stick and then try again also you will eventually want to upgrade to 2 gigs any way which is great

Um Iam not buying 2gigs of Ram for an outdated and dead socket that supports only single channel memory, I tested my computer and No for a fact it is not the memory but the motherboard, I updated to service pack 2 and I seem to get this error more often, I reformatted my computer and reinstalled my drivers. I am very annoyed that I still get this error message! I think I will just throw out my PC and buy an Imac..


Iam really begining to hate PCs...

i am glad you found the problem that's great

pc is the place for games man so hopefully your not a gamer if you want to switch to mac

i myself have frustration with pc but i can't afford to buy cheap
in other words i try to buy quality hardware with a warrenty (not that i didn't void my cpu and video card warrents :ohwell:) lol

Go to BIOS, search for the 1T/2T Timing and set this to 2T.
