    It crashes when I run memtest+ 2.10 :-(
    It says I have DDR 433 with 4-4-4-12 timings. :-(
    I'm not sure it is the same place but I did notice the word 'HALTING' on the screen before it reboots.
    No memory errors, it just reboots.

    I put a pic at:

    I think I found the problem. :)
    I had an external USB mouse connected and when I move it memtest crashes.
    I *think* the USB generates an interrupt.
    I haven't done a full memtest pass but so far so good.
    Acer really shouldn't soldered RAM on.
    They should definitely make the BIOS able to disable the onboard RAM.
