That's just parity. With only one extra bit you can detect single bit errors, but you can't correct them. > Note, though, that I've heard Athlon doesn't play well with ECC,... That seems rather unlikely, since ECC is handled entirely in hardware in the memory subsystem. -- John Hasler [EMAIL PROTECTED] (John Hasler) Dancing Horse Hill Elmwood, WI
