heres my problemo:
I plop my new chip in start up. BSOD.
restart... BSOD
restart... BSOD
reinstall xp... freezes/BSOD
format fully/reinstall xp works for a while, but then i run update. and when got some updat that was gonna make windows load msi files better. couldnt restart

then...
BSODBSODBSODBSODBSODBSODBSODBSODBSOD and BSOD

i wanna install vista 64 bit, but that doesnt work either.

hell i even tried linux and unix!

helps me before i paint my room with me brains

====EDIT/UPDATE=====

PFN_LIST_CORRUPT STOP:0X0000004E

IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL STOP:0X0000004E

more to follow
 
Blue screen? Something is not right. Try and take one or two gigs out. Put them back in after. Windows 32 bits only recognizes 3 gigs. Make sure the chip is compatible with the board. Check that you are supplying enough power to the cpu by having a 4 pin connector plugged in. What does it say on the blue screen? That is the key information you left out. I would say its the memory.

I'm glad you get a BSOD, not because it means you can't do anything, but because it will provide us with an actual error message. Even if the error is for a split second, whip out a piece of paper and right down parts of it until you have the complete error message. Now as for things to try...

I actually can't suggest anything without asking a few questions

1) Plopping in a new chip suggests you upgraded a part, most likely your processor, but I need to know if this is a new build or if it is just an upgrade.

2) Double check all your power connections, make sure (most psus have this) the correctly labeled 16/20 and 4/8 etc... pins are plugged in to the correct spots. My friend accidentally plugged in PCI-E into CPU1's connection, it didn't damage anything, but it didn't make his life any easier.

Please get back to me with that BSOD message, and if possible... anything that LINUX tells you error wise.
I would also like a complete inventory on your parts make and model, that may give me an idea of any common mistakes you may have made. For example, the model of your RAM would be helpful if you're having issues there.

I would also suggest checking out your BIOS and making sure the voltage readings are correct and the CPU temperature looks normal (Warning, thermal sensors aren't always correct, the same goes with voltage readings, but most of the time they are)

you may want to try installing with 2 gigs first. there have been a lot of reports about installing windows with 4 gigs. if you install with 2gigs without a problem, you should be able to add the other 2 in later.

Trykael has a good point, but for the error to happen with linux is a little unusual. If it does work with 2GB, it could mean an OS error or just plain faulty RAM, good ol memtest ;p

Could also be poorly configured RAM timings. Find out what the manufacturer recommends your RAM run at for both timings and voltage, then see if that's what it's actually set at.

My system was unstable like that because the BIOS had give my RAM too little voltage.

Aye Lafinass, my RAM automatically configures to run at 800mhz but it is actually 1066mhz

You mixed it with 800Mhz ram?

1. Upgrade from old core 2 duo to a core 2 duo EE

2. Checked everything twice

3. I have the ole' iqul_not_lessy_or_equal thing. but i there have been lots others too, hats just the most common one. Sometimes it doesn't even give me a BSOD, sometimes it randomly freezes and i have to manually reboot.

I've used this computer with xp 32 (all 4 gigs) the problems didn't happen until I upgraded chips. I'm currently installing vista 64 on to MY hard drive on ANOTHER computer. So far no problems.

I'm checking with ABIT to see if in fact there are any compatibility issues. If so I'll buy a new mobo. (thinking of

my dadio can get it for $150)

Nope
 
How many watts is your power supply? Also, post exactly what ram you have, and is it set to anything that is not stock speed? This may be a power issue, so we need to know exact values. If your new chip is pulling more power, then we need to know. You might have to end up lowing voltage on the ram and down-clocking it if this is the case. It isn't the operating system that is causing it, as you have found out.
