MSI nforce ram problem (green lines of death!)

[badkarma]

I have an MSI Nvidia nforce motherboard (k7n420 Pro) and with my two sticks of 128 mb of pc2100 DDR memory in my first two RAM slots green lines appear going down my screen. These are my fastest RAM slots and my system is running freaking slow! How can I fix these green lines? I have updated to version 2.3 bios aswell. HELP!!!!!!!

do the green lines appear when you've successfully booted an OS? Or are you having trouble POSTing?

It posts just fine. Its when I play games there is the green lines going vertically down the screen. Also there are some lines in the 1 square inch around my cursor all the time.

I have the same board, and I haven't had any green lines.
Also, your supposed to put your RAM in the first and third slots, not the first and second. I benchmarked my system with multiple memory configurations, and that one is by far the fastest (when using onboard graphics).
