Well, in my case I had purchased generic memory at a cheap price and got |
| 18 |
what I paid for. I didn't immediately recognize that as the problem, |
| 19 |
however, and since it worked most of the time... |

In the OP's case, however, he said name-brand memory. That's definitely |
| 22 |
worth returning, if it's found to be the problem. If declocking the |
| 23 |
memory (only) works, then it's obviously the problem. =8^\ |
