ram problem?

[mathawk]

Hi
I have a fairly new pc with 512Mb RAM and have purchased another 512MB of
identical memory from the same shop i bought my pc from, but since fitting
my extra memory, i am experiencing blue screens every day - usually bad pool
headers. Is this a faulty memory? Thoughts pls.

Remove the memory for a couple of days to see if the problem persists.. it
could be that some of the RAM is faulty..

It certainly sounds like it. Try running the PC with only the new RAM
module in place, to see. If the problems still occur, go back to using
only the original module for a while. If no more problems occur, the
new module is either defective or incompatible.
