Hello,

I bought parts to build a workstation about a month ago and assembled
the box myself. I am running dual Xeon 3.0GHz processor on a Intel
SE7525GP2 motherboard. I bought 2 sticks of 1GB PC2700 ECC memory and
have a 160GB Seagate HDD. I am also running Windows XP Pro x64. After
booting and working with it, it seems to run awesome for a while.
However, I have been running into a freezing issue. It seems to run
well for a while, which various in length (time). After a while, it
just freezes up. I have been trying to troubleshoot this, but cannot
seem to figure it out. The motherboard has four slots for memory, and
are labled DIMM 1B, DIMM 1A, DIMM 2B, and DIMM 2A respectively. I have
placed my memory sticks in DIMM 1B and DIMM 1A. I have a feeling it may
have been my memory. I tried installing the memory in DIMM 1A and DIMM
2A, but this doesn't change the freezing problem. If anyone has any
clue what the problem could possibly be, it would be most appreciated.
I updated the bios and everything else regarding my motherboard from
the Intel website and webpage specifically for my motherboard. If
anymore information is needed I will be happy to share.

Thanks in advance for any advice...
 
There is a group for XP64bit. But in the meantime try using just one
stick and then the other to see if the issue is corrected.
