Thats a possibility yes..

But my thoughts now, is bad memory stick..

If you have 2 take out 1 start the game..

If it fails try with the other..

If it passes then you know which stick is good.


Its possible both are bad..


General Rules..

1. Stick to the same speed of memory, dont mix and match, i.e. dont put in a 512mb PC3200 and 512mb PC2700.

2. Keep to same brand if possible, although not a necessity it prolongs your memory life if you do so.

3. Go for memory with Parity Checking/EEC. Its worth a bit more, not much, but means alot in performance and possible crashings that wont occur so easily.
