    I just plugged in a 2GB RAM module (Corsair, 667MHz, CL5, model #VS2GSDS667D2) and besides everything stuttering when anything graphical happens (like I didn't have nVidia drivers installed at all), the Device Manager is showing me this:

    Seeing that it has something to do with PCI Express driver/slot/device/whatever I'm not suprised if the graphics aren't working allright but does anyone have any idea what's causing it? Somehow I can't connect a RAM upgrade to PCI Express performance degrade :confused:

    Have you upgraded to bios 300? They resolved these issues AFAIK.

    Heh, took me a while now. First I disabled the problematic part, didn't help, then upgraded to 300 BIOS and kept the thingy there disabled with no results. Eventually I enabled it again and ta-daa, it's working. Cheers! :)
