Hi guys,
my configuration is:

XP2500+ Barton
Cooler Spire 3200+
A7N8X deluxe (BIOS v1007)
Case Chieftec
Power supply Chieftec 340W

****************************
2x512Mb TwinMOS PC3200 in Dual Channel

P/N: M2G9J16AJAMK9F081AADT

Model no: M2G9J16A-MK

Chip M.tec
0345D
TTD7608F8E50D
****************************

Memory at 400MHz 7-3-3-2.5 don't work, the system don't boot :angry1:
Memory at 400MHz 8-4-4-3 don't work, the system don't boot :angry2:
Memory at 333MHz 7-3-3-2.5 work fine

Why? Incompatibility?

Note: No overclock, no overvolt.

Thanks in advance
Bye

Check your board on the Asus website to see if a BIOS upgrade fixed an issue such as this.

To improve compatibility, increase the memory voltage from 2.65v to 2.75v. This has helped Corsair and Crucial users, and may also help with your memory.

Also, double check your motherboard documentation to ensure that your memory is in the correct slots. On my Asus board, I accidentally put the memory side-by-side, which was incorrect. If yours is similar to mine, there should be a vacant DDR slot in between them. (On my board, the two correct slots are blue.)

Hope this is useful.
The only other thing might be too small of a power supply, but you should be safe unless you're using a high power graphics card or have multiple hard drives.
