Thanks for your reply Jon! I ran the memtest-86 program and there was the error : "too small lower memory (0x99100 > 0x96000) " , so does this imply that I am having memory issue? I tried re-seating the CPU and memory sticks but that didn't help. How should I troubleshoot this?

Thanks,
Dao.

YEESH! I've never heard of that one, and have NO IDEA what it means! A quick Google search seems to indicate it is
a bug in the version of memtest-86 you are using, that may be incompatible with some 64-bit CPUs.

I'm not sure how easy it would be to get a bootable version of the latest memtest-86. But, anyway, it
does NOT appear to be a hardware "error". But, I'm guessing it makes it impossible to run
memtest-86 on your computer.

Jon
