so, im trying to fix some pain in the a$$ problems im having with my computer and ithink i may have found out that my 3 memory chips might be conflicting.. i ran memtest86.exe, and it seems that i was getting different errors with all 3 in there..i got rid of 1 of the chips and the tests ran smooth..so, my question is.. if i had conflicting memory chips would that cause the computer errors i was getting (crashing programs, bad cd reads, cds saying they are corrupted, slow downs, etc).. thanks for any help.. 1
have you run the memtest on each individual memoty stick? are they by same manufacturer or different ones??
individually they are fine.. but all together they conflict.. so i got rid of 1 (dropping me to 768mb) but no errors, which is the most important thing.. so iguess i need to buy another stick.. any suggestions for compatibility?
you mean, brand? or type? its the same memory i was using before.. its just now, its decided not to work well together
take an eraser to the gold contacts on the ram to remove any oxidation to see ram ram works together again
