Sounds good to me.

Guess so, too. Altough your *real* CPU freq is 2.66Ghz.

Yeah. Don't push things too hard if it is not necessary.

Sure! You _want_ SATA and nothing else!

Sorry, I have only SATA devices attached.
I could image that if you have a PATA drive
attached to one ofthe IDE connectors and it is
bootable it will boot from there.
?? Just guessing.
Btw, I would recommend switching off the boot
image. If you do that you'l see that you
can press F8 to select the boot drive.
And another thing regarding memory: Did
you check your memory using memtest86?
I _definitely_ recommend doing that.
