Well i've always read that the BH6 doesn't like to have more than two DIMM slots in use at the same time. I now have 2 128MB Mosel PC133 sticks + 1 128MB NEC PC100 stick in my mobo working like a charm :) Whats up with that?

lol, I have never read anything about that. I used to have my bh6 with 1 128, 1 64, and 1 32 no problem. Weird number though! :)

Strange you mentioned that. I just put together a system with a BH6. Won't work with all the DIMM's filled. Don't know why either.

I never heard that rumor before either. I have all 3 dimm slots of my Bh6 version 1.01 filled with no problem.

Some versions of the motherboard and some versions of ram together didn't like the Bh6.
The Bx6 didn't like HSDRAM from enhanced memory.
