No, ...just me.... and I've swapped over modules from another (running properly) machine to check and it's the same... it's a real swine this one.... I'm intrigued that you consider 4 gig to be the minimum setup for such a setup... having read this I then took two modules from the 'running' box to see how it would fair... and although it was noticeable it wasn't demonstrating the 'stuttering' of the other.... so I am fairly confident that it's not the fact that 4 gig isn't enough... one of the issues seems to be unrelated to the volume of RAM (certainly between 2 and 4 gig-worth)... It's the fact that the damned thing won't boot at all with 4 slots populated (with any size of RAM). I'm going to try tweaking the voltage as suggested by Thierry and see what happens (knowing my luck of late I'll probably fry the blasted things.)
