Hello all,
I have a question. I just installed 512 megs of ram in my machine bringing it up to 640MB. I cannot run Unreal Tournament (It will load, but if I try to play it locks up or BSOD's. Other games run slow or work fine (Half Life works just fine). Also IE 5.5 tends to slow down as I use it. I have done the work around for > 512 megs on the Microsoft Website (Thanks for that tip guys it did solve some problems) I have limited the amount of ram windows uses to 512 and 256 (via msconfig) and it has not helped or made it worse. I know that the ram is good (ran the checker from simmtester.com and it passed the burn in). I have run cacheman to optimize my settings for disk cache and vcache.
I have done everything relavent that I have read in the memory forum and am still having this problem. Can somebody please give me some ideas on where to go from here?
My whole system is:
Abit bx6 r2
300w Deer PS
PIII 450
640 MB pc100 all generic 1x128 2x256 the 256 are low density
1 60.1 GB HD
1 6.8 GB HD
1 HP 9310I CDRW
1 Mitsumi 16x cdrom
1 DLink 530tx+ ethernet card
1 SB live! value
1 Visiontek Geforce 3
Win98 SE
Zonealarm Firewall(always running since I've had attacks. I don't think this matters since I've closed it and still have the problems, but I thought I might mention it)
I would really appreciate any help with this as I've gone as far as I can without a little help. Thanks in advance
