23631	2001-11-04 23:43:00	Hi Can anyone help me??? I have a AMD Duron 750 on a BC133Kt-100 motherboard. Whenever i am on the internet or using another application and i have winamp going with mp3's or CDs after a while a long beeping sound comes and the computer restarts itself. i am thinking that it is a memory error, i have 2x 128mb SDRAM PC 133 sticks. i have changed them over and done everything like that, is there anything else that it could be??? Would slowing it down to pc100 in the CMOS setup do anything??? Look foward to hearing from anyone that knwos of this problem	Guest (0)
