Thanks to Russ, Mary, Peter, and Ben.

All your suggestions have been helpful.
I ran the Ramtester for over an hour, and the memory passed without error.

So far, the machine will boot if set to:
Turbo: Disabled,  AGP: 2/3, Speed Error Hold: Disabled,
Clock: 100, x: 5.5, Voltage: 2.2
It goes through the boot process and freezes within about a minute (starts to read
the boot floppy and / or hard drive). It will not boot if voltage is below 2.2.
At other settings, the machine does not boot at all(blank screen).
If I use an odd setting it will display - "CPU changed or is not workable".
The Global Fan(3 Fans) is secured to the CPU with a custom support. Thermal paste
has also been used. Also, there are 2 case fans, but right now, the cover is off.
Clearing CMOS each time is becoming a pain.
Any other suggestions?  :(

Humbly, :(
Dharam
