[QUOTE="techiesteve, post: 1685280, member: 98520"] In the last week I've seen 2 problems similar to Joe's issue. A 2011 17" MBP beeping a RAM fault continuously. The bottom RAM slot wasn't recognising any RAM. To minimise expenditure on an older Mac the 2 x 4GB was removed and a single 8GB fitted. The other failure was on a 2011 13" MBP, again a bottom slot failure, but intermittent, RAM was OK, logic board defective. In both cases visually the slots were OK. Not normally a common problem. Long ago on a 15" PowerBook G4 Apple had an REP for a similar memory slot problem. [/QUOTE]
