Updating the BIOS is a bit dangerous, but if you follow all the isntructions it is pretty safe.
First, I would try removing all the memory except one module of 256. Then reboot to see what happens.

For the BIOS, Go to intel and read this:

http://downloadmirror.intel.com/5312/ENG/P10-0038d.pdf

ore read the info release:
HV84510A.86A.0038.P10.0204151346



You will find the BIOS at

http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Prod...D=664&lang=eng

The BIOS is named:

P15 dated 05/29/2003

Intel lflash.BIOS.update [HV86AP15BI.EXE] or similar

Just click on the right where it says "download"

If your computer doesn't need it, it won't install.

It is best to copy it to a floppy disc then boot to the floppy to install it, unless the Intel instructions are different.
