hi i built a computer for someone and it keeps crashing when they are using Cubase + VST's & sound forge etc.

I suspect its either the RAM or the MOTHERBOARD.
The CPU is fully working. I know that allmost for certain because they where PIB (prossesor in a box).

What i realy need to know from someone is what is a recomended Motherboard for music production?

at the momentthe PC's Spec is:

Athlon XP 2200+ (133x2 fsb =266)
512MB Infinion DDR 400 RAM
Giga-Byte GA-7VT600 - 1394 Motherboard
80 gig western digital ATA133
52x Lite On CD/RW

The computer works perfectly well untill you start doing serious work on it.

Should the RAM & CPU have the same FSB's?

Are giga-byte mobo's ok for making tunes on? What is everyone else using?

thanks
karl
