    Hi,
       I got some advice on another group to check ram with
    memtest86. http://www.memtest86.com/

    test one stick of ram at a time. I am still testing all my
    sticks, so i don't know if that was the cause of my install
    failing, but just one 128mb stick i have had over 1,000,000
    errors on it, so i am sure that was a major problem.
