So I've decided to mod my old motherboard by covering it in a thin layer of plasti-dip. Before I sprayed it, I secured every input/connector, so no paint got into it. I secured the CPU and RAM slots extra well, and I highly doubt that paint went in there. Plasti dip is easily removable, and non conductive.
Now for some more technical info, which might help you guys: The two slots that are broken are both part of memory Channel A. Whenever I run the computer with RAM sticks plugged into that channel, I get a warning that the cpu has detected a malfunction on Channel A, and that I need to plug it out and in again. The memory on Channel B works perfectly, and if I switch the sticks around, the situation doesn't change. Right now I'm running it without sticks in Channel A, and everything is fine.
I would like to learn from my mistakes, which means that I need to know where I went wrong. Hopefully you will be able to give some assistance!
