I have a > couple of Barcelonas and they work fine with this same mobo. Which speed barcelona? That's really surprising since I believe all shanghai cpus are lower power than all barcelonas. Did you upgrade the BIOS? Oh, what speed does the shanghai claim it's running the memory at? Shanghai can drive ddr2-800 instead of the barcelona's ddr2-667. If your motherboard and dimms are limited to 667 and you drive them at 800 that might be your problem. _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
