My home machine is an Nforce2 Ultra400 board with 1GB of PC3200 memory and a AthlonXP 2500+ overclocked to a 3200+ by setting the FSB to 400MHz. It had FC2 on it and just last week I installed FC3. It runs great with FC3. I upgraded the RAM from 512MB to 1GB when it had FC2 on it and there were no problems.
My guess would still be memory. My two sticks are matched. Maybe your board or the OS is having issues with the different sticks of memory? A stretch, but I have seen weirder problems. If you have some spare RAM available, you might swap it out and see what happens. If nothing else, it would eliminate that as the problem. HTH.
Thanks Justin for ignoring my request to mail only to the list:-) I'm subscribed but suspended for excessive bounces (of which I can see no trace), my invitations to confirm have both expired an the webpage comes up blank in Konqueror (not surprise when I read the HTML!), and the lit mangler has not responded to my email.
Define "matched." I bought them from the same supplier and they were in the same price range. I'd have thought that the supplier would ask questions if it were important.
For the moment, would others pls CC me too?
Sorry, didn't catch the send only to list part. Been on vacation, so I am just now getting caught up. Did you get this resolved?
After reading over the original post again, the part about a power failure right before the problem popped up a red flag.
Following a power failure, I a) Replaced CPU fan b) added a further 512 Mbytes RAM for a Giggle total.
Possible the power failure either fried the stick of RAM in the machine at the time or fried the motherboard or cpu. Of course, there are also about 100 other possible problems.:-)
