I don't have any XP's, I have a K6/2 333, an Intel P1 233, and an Intel p2 533, only the AMD and the p2 have SIMMs, the P1 doesn't, which sucks, that's the one I wanted to smoke out

Been there done that ... no fire ...... fire only happens if the thermal diode fails (makes me question the kinda mobo THG was using when they did that)

they had a board where the thermal diode couldnt measure the increase fast enough, it's supposedly been fixed but if you have an old revision board it can still be done

I still don't think that this is a mem problem. The memtest got up to 500% coverage until the comp froze, so it apparantly isn't an obvoius problem
