If it's a modern machine then most of the memory channels are 2 or |
| 21 |
even 3 DIMM's wide. Consult you manual as to whether you can run less |
| 22 |
than pairs or DIMMS. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
If you have 4 DIMM's installed then I'd consider removing two, testing |
| 25 |
two, testing the other two, and then if you see a problem testing all |
| 26 |
the combinations until you figure out which one is causing the error. |

Good luck, |
