Hey guys,
My comp started failing about 4-5 days ago and I tested everything and concluded that the memory controller on my mobo was done. One stick of ram worked in only slot 3. Sounds like a controller problem right? Well I thought that as well. Got my new motherboard yesterday and hooked it all back up again and now only one of my four gigs works at all! At least now it works in any slot so I know for sure that it's the RAM.
Has anyone heard of 3 modules failing at the exact same time? My guess would be that the bad mobo corrupted them but I don't really know. I don't know if theres a way to solve this or if I have to RMA something for the second time this week...
