[quote roshi]the failures are when I ran MEMTEST. Soon in the process, it began zooming through page after page of
FAILURE: 0x784409230392702-2085-0 ! = 0xa589233875420 type stuff.
After several minutes, I just shut the machine down.
I am not familiar with memtest, never ran it before.
Roshi, a few tips.
1. Use Rember, which is a GUI for MemTest, makes it easier for the first timers.
2. Use logical steps.
First run Rember with stock RAM, then if it passes, put in the third-party RAM next.
3. Unplug everything from the USB bus but the mouse and keyboard before running tests.
Troubleshooting Takes Time.
