michele,
Whew! ( he wipes Brow) That was a lot of data. But I did find something of interest,
at least worth checking out.
The best solution would be to run a memory Scan to not only ID the existing RAM,
but also, find the Best memory solution.
Go to the link below to Run Crucial's on-line Memory Scan. This Scan will assess
you system and give you the info you need to resolve a slight mis-match in the 2
RAM modules you are currently running.

I won't bore you with an explanation, but suffice it to say you have 1 Ram module
that is not totally compatible with the other.
When the Crucial scan is finished you will have all the info you need to find and
install Compatible RAM for your System.
I don't know if this will resolve all your problems, but the consensus is it's a
Hardware problem, and since RAM is Hardware, and affects ALL your hardware, I believe
you won't resolve all your problems till this is corrected.
From this scan you will get Part # & prices for RAM Modules that are Guaranteed to
be compatible with your Motherboard. It will also show you how the Dimms needs to
be installed in the Motherboard slots. Sorry, no, they're not all the same.
I havn't had time to view the Pics. If you've figured out how to acces the RAM, I
would pull the Module in DIMM slot 1 and see if the problems change or go away.
Dimm slots are numbered 0, 1, 2, 3, on the Motherboard, making slot 1 the 2nd slot
not the first. When you access the RAM slots, with 4 slots available, it kinda looks
like this.
[0]---[1]---[2]---[3]
256 128 X X (X=no DIMM)
mb mb
2 slots looks like this.
[0]---[1]
256 128
mb mb
Unplug the Computer if you are going to pull the Modules.
In either case pull the 128mb module. Don't worry, you may notice the system runs
faster without the 128mb.
Run the scan & let me know what you find.
BW
