yes it is completly possible. |

But it is also possible, that your PSU is not powerfull enough. A big compile |
| 16 |
needs a lot of processing power and stresses the ram, so a lot of current is |
| 17 |
needed - and some PSUs aren't able to cope with such a load -exspecially if |
| 18 |
they are cheap and/or a little bit older. |
| 19 |
Try another PSU, do you still have problems, RMA the ram. |

Memtest86(+) is known not to find all errors. |
