Hi all, I dual boot between win98SE and win2K (and Linux too, but that does not matter for this question). For my mouse (a logitech mx500) under win98SE both buttons on the side are labeled as button 3 or middle mouse button by games.

CPU-Z incorrect or is it me?

Arin
I ended up getting another 2 sticks of 512 mb corsair xms pc3200 2-2-2-5. I checked cpu z and it said that I'm running my ram at cpu/14 so its about 150mhz. . . it should be 200. I used an older version of cpu z and it reported it running correctly.
