Hey guys,
First time poster, so if this topic is completely malplaced, I apologize.
Thing is I have some serious problems with my computer. A couple of days ago I bought another set of RAM and after installing that, applications crashes and files won't read. I've formated the drive and tried to remove the memory, but to no avail. If I try to install any bigger application, the file will eventually stop reading, stating that the installation file (data1.cab etc) is corrupt or similar. Firefox crashes randomly, and games such as World of Warcraft and Football Manager 09 crashes after a few minutes of play (ie randomly). The computer worked fine until installing that extra set of memory, and now it seems like every file is corrupt or unreadable.
Processor Name: AMD Athlon 64 3800+
Motherboard Model: Foxconn 6100M2MA-2.0-RS2H/6150M2MA-KRS2H
Motherboard Chipset: nVidia GeForce 6100 (C51) + MCP51
Video Chipset: nVIDIA GeForce 8500 GT (G86)
Video Card: MSI NX8500GT-E (MS-V096)
Drive Model: MAXTOR STM3250820A
Drive Controller: E-IDE (ATA-7)
Memory: Kingston K 1024mb PC3200 DDR SDRAM (both)
If anyone has any clue or can give me a shove in the right direction, I would be eternally grateful. I've never had a problem quite like this (and god knows I've had my share of problems). I have no clue whatsoever on what might be wrong or what the hell is going on.
