hmm. well the spec sheet just says "unbuffered DDR 266/200" and that is what 
we got. I never noticed there was a list of "recommended" memory, but your 
comment made me look and I found one. PQI is not on the list :(

But... we had a similar system with the same mobo and ram stick - only one 
512M, not 2x1G like these - that was running for years with nary a hiccup 
until the disks died. The one we are having problems with was its 
upgrade/replacement. Maybe this is a problem though.

thanks
