Thanks Fenril, I've now had some improvement. I got my PC to boot with 2 sticks of the new RAM in it, BUT it will only recognize one of them. I tried putting all three in, switching which port i put each stick in but it will only boot with 2 or less.

Also in regards to the quote from Patriot, I built my PC from the ground up so I dont have to worry about limitations

thanks for the help so far, hopefully I/We can figure this thing out. I got 4 level 80 shammies to level
