running DDR40 at 333 GA7N400 Pro

Archived from groups: alt.comp.periphs.mainboard.gigabyte (More info?)

Hello everyone.
Just got myself 2x512mb DDR400 even though my processor runs at333. My
problem is that when using these my system is highly unstable. I would
imagine that it would just underclock to run at 333.

Does anyone have any suggestions or should I assume that at least one of
them is faulty?

I am using GA7N400 Pro with Athlon 2600.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the info. One of them was bad.
