I440BX AND DRIVER

Most people who are doing "a small upgrade for a customer" who's customer is interested in saving pennies on an old p3 aren't interested in trying to overclock their video card or memory, hence all the talk of trying to run a MHz fsb part on his motherboard, while valid and something I might try, really doesn't help him at all. If the modules was sold as "high density" then it is not compatible with boards based on the bx chipset. If there are one or more small chips on them apart from the ram chips, then it is a registered module. Sorry, I have no idea. I suggest using memtest86 to test your ram, this program seems to catch almost all errors if you let it run all tests. But the manual states I need PC Dimms? I didn't know that, how can I know wether a motherboard supports newer, high-density sticks or not?
