  1. I too am able to get the WTGenusb driver to work w/ my Kingston Data Traveler 2 GB stick & W98se on an ASUS P5s-B. It sure does load up the processer tho. Response w/ a couple of browser windows open is not so great. Other than that the stick works. Brodick
  2. That is precisely my experience w/ my chip which has L2=512. Although the system BIOS will recognize 512 MB of RAM it will run much better (faster) w/ 256 MB and NO stability issues. I was expecting big things with the second 256 MB. Alas, no joy. By the way 384MB performance is good too. I just used the 128 MB stick in another box or I would have reinstalled it w/ the 256. All memory is matched for CAS (2) and Manufacturer. YMMV
  3. Check the amount of L2 cache on your CPU. If you install more RAM than the CPU cache you will get unstable results from a shortage of addresses. I read recently here that the L2 cache should ideally be 2x the installed RAM. For me limiting the amount of RAM thusly resulted in a smart increase in performance and stability. Also, RAM performance for the whole amount will be whatever the slowest CAS is with mixed RAM. (From Crucial.) Dick
