Yeah, I have no idea what caused it to fry. It still remains a mystery. Steve Max: Congrats on your successful purchase but from this day on, I'm never going near an Apacer RAM.

Sounds as though it might be the BIOS settings? Try going in there and leave the RAM settings at default. This should allow it to detect the RAM settings automatically.
