Didn't you have a RAM reliability problem a while ago? As for technology
I often use PCs a decade or longer. Steps in technology are not always
forward steps. As evidenced in the latest, ahem, "new and improved" OS
developments ;-)

Don't know quite why, but it was mixed size strips that was the
problem.

I was told it was OK to use mixed sizes, providing Strip1 matches
Strip2 and Strip3 matches Strip4. 'Tain't so :-(
