I found other forums where people had the same problems with the Q6600, 4GB
RAM and most had the nVidia 8800 GTS/GTX. It was happening with Asus, MSI
and Intel boards. For some, downgrading the Bios a few versions to where the
user had more control over the "memory hole" area for the video card
corrected the problem. I will update the post with more URLs to the other
forums when I get back to work (I placed them in my favorites at the office)
