440EX is cost, features reduced chipset and 66MHz fsb. The memory bank is 2 according to the wiki. This probably have to do with specific memory issues you are having.

Have you tried two memory sticks of 128MB each for 256MB total? This is also what 440EX supports memory max size.

3Dnow and SSE is needed to work correctly which others have seen with both games and video card drivers requirements.

Cheers,

Two sticks of 128MB work just fine and is what I ended up using.

Hi,
Thank you for clarification. Please add this in your original report, since there wasn't there originally.
