FWIW a friend and I have found an issue with my 7N400 Pro2 Rev 2 and his
7N400-L when trying to run 2 x 512mb sticks of PC3200 in dual channel in
DIMM slots DDR1 & DDR3. Very unstable.

If you use slots DDR1 & DDR4 both boards run solid as a rock in dual
channel.

Experienced this when using a matched set of 2 x 512mb of Kingston PC3200
CL3 (KVR400X64C3AK2/1G) in both the 7N400 Pro 2 Rev 2 & 7N400-L.

He also tried 2 x 512mb of cheaper Elixir ram in the 7N400-L with same
issue - DIMM 1&3 unstable, DIMM 1&4 rock solid.

We flashed to latest bios for our respective boards but did not make any
difference.
