[QUOTE="Exodist, post: 1563638, member: 284358"] I fully agreed with you on the seating issue and recommend he try that first. At least I think I did.. LOL.. Many motherboards have got so tight that I now regularly install the modules on to the boards while on a table before putting the motherboard into a case. I even do the same for the CPU just to make sure the fan/heat-sink set flat and even. But yes if the modules loose connection it will cause a kernel panic. I have even seen it burn a ram stick up before in a friends computer. (He tried to upgrade it on his on.) I was just pointing out all the avenues one goes through to check ram and compatibility. :) [/QUOTE]
