736938 2009-01-10 09:28:00 RAM or PSU, could even be mobo..... SolMiester (139)
736939 2009-01-10 09:33:00 RAM/PSU are brand new aidanmaz (7180)
736940 2009-01-10 09:39:00 new RAM doesnt mean its okay, PSU okay......have you checked the RAM for compatibility with the mobo?

Remove 1 stick and install the o\s with just 1
