Does this pic from Memtest86 mean I need to RMA my memory?

I have had problems for a couple of weeks now, where XP sometimes wouldnt boot, or reboot at the loading screen.

Also, once into Windows the mouse would be very laggy even when doing nothing, also had various eventvwr errors but I reinstalled XP so those are gone.

 
Looks like a dodgy module to me :(

I take it this is just one of the two modules you have?

Have you tried increasing the Vdimm to 2.8V? Give that a try and see if you still error, otherwise its RMA time :(
 
Cheers for the quick reply :)

Well, my board only has "high" voltage setting, which is around 2.7+, been working OK for 6 months now, until I got the problems I mentioned.

Yep, its 1 stick of 2, tested both individually and the other didnt give any errors, got it in now and its working fine, but the other wont boot up.

Just going to post on Corsairs site (have to to get a Post ID for RMA)

Shame I have to airmail it to the US as far as I can see. :(

Thanks for the quick reply, I suspected as much.

EDIT: all at stock BTW
 
Cool, no worries, good job Ive got some generic ram lying around taht works OK, but just having 512Mb ram sucks these days :D
