Re: Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo Memory Problem



(i will silently ignore the format you choose for your message.)

this may be the wrong place to ask this question, and i don't know what
exactly the tests do, but the errors you report
sound a lot like broken hardware - especially RAM.

it would be very nice to know if your machine stops crashing when
you remove the RAM, or if the problem persists.

though i don't know much about your problem, i would return that DIMM
to were you bought it and try another one.
