Hello,

Just had a couple of quick questions,

1/ Trying to find some cheap DDR2 800 (4GB total) but everywhere seems to be quite expensive, anyone know of a good place?

2/ Currently have an Intel p35 board and since putting in an NVidia GTX560 it does a 'count' to 100, anyone know how to stop this? Also how to stop the 'Intel' screen at the start? Managed to do this on another board but not this one.

Thank you,

Scott

DDR2 RAM is slowly disappearing so prices are going up unfortunately.

Kingston HyperX RAM Module 4 GB (2 x 2 GB) DDR2 SDRAM 800 MHz Non-ECC 240pin for $130 brand new. Email me your details if you are interested - gund@arcainsula.co.nz.

Look through your BIOS for a "quick boot" option. From your description, the normal boot process is checking ram and other diagnostics on start.

Cheers
