hello

since i have upgraded to vista i have had a lot of problems with my ram. the stick in the 3rd ddr slot will keep on dying! maybe once every 3 months, and i send it back to crucial and they replace it, however, they are starting to get pissed off with me!

basically what happens, is that i may be playing games, and the BSOD will come up and say memory_mangement, and then the computer wont boot up. i have to remove the 3rd stick of ram and leave only stick 1 in.

and when i swap them, it wont boot up. do you think my motherboard is done? ps the ram is actually underclocked.

your advice would be most appreciated.


here is my system:
amd a8ne x2 4400
2x1gb ddr500 crucial ballistix
x1900xtx
750gb seagate
xfi xtrememusic

antec 550w
