Wrong memory type

Post #126,933 by orion 11/20/03 7:57:09 PM Reply	Wrong memory type It is Corsair ValueSelect RAM, not certified for the board. D'oh! I clicked on the link that Scott gave, either they sent me the wrong one, or it wasn't checked out when Scott selected it. Get the Corsair XMS or TwinX series. *"Lady I only speak two languages, English and Bad English!" - Corbin Dallas "The Fifth Element"*

If you the item you purchased is still within the refund warranty <[link\|http://www.newegg.com/app/faq_product.asp#27>\|http://www.newegg.co...q_product.asp#27>] coverage and you wanted to do an exchange, we would request that you authorize a return for refund by clicking here <[link\|https://secure.newegg.com/app/Login.asp>\|https://secure.newegg.com/app/Login.asp>] (all returns must be pre-authorized). Then, simply place a new order for the item you desire on our website. Once you have your new Sales Order number, just give us a call or send us an email with the new SO and your RMA (return merchandise authorization) number and we'll waive the restocking fee for you. You may view this as an exchange. If you have any further questions or concerns, please visit our FAQs <[link\|http://www.newegg.com/app/faq.asp>\|http://www.newegg.com/app/faq.asp>] page or just drop us a line and we'd be happy to assist you. Thanks for writing and have a pleasant day. Kindest regards. So I request a refund for the ValueSelect RAM, place an order for the XMS RAM, and then email or call them with the new SO and the RMA Order and avoid a restocking fee. I'll let everyone know the result. I agree with Gryus here, the cheaper RAM can cause problems. *"Lady I only speak two languages, English and Bad English!" - Corbin Dallas "The Fifth Element"*

I had thought it was the built-in video card interfering with memory, but now I'm not so sure. Thanks for the info. Regards, -scott anderson "Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson..."

[link\|http://www.crucial.com\|http://www.crucial.com] Cheaper than Newegg, and they have EXCELLENT memory. I've never had problems with their sticks. I have a red sign on my door. It says "If this sign is blue, you're going too fast."
