Bad RAM Posted September 1, 2004 at 12:00 am

I think I’ve gotten to the root of my PC problems. I had the brilliant notion to test each memory module individually. Sure enough, one module passed MemTest86 at the rated speed and one didn’t. Now I’m running on the one 512 MB module and my data corruption issues have disappeared. Perhaps what bothers me most about the issue is that I didn’t previously try testing the modules individually rather than as a pair. I’ve had intermittent PC problems for a good year now and I never made the right deduction in all that time. I contacted Mushkin and they should have a new module to me by Monday.
