mobo or cpu prob? fault after RMAd unit

shuttle sn25p.

wont boot with two mem sticks in. will boot with either(or any other) stick in the blue slot.

Is this a mobo problem, or could it be something else?

I have received this shuttle back from rma. It worked for a week, then displayed same fault.

I am more than chagrinned :mad:

sounds like mobo to me, if you just put one stick in the slot with issues and leave the blue one empty does it boot then?

any combination which includes a stick in the black one -> no boot

any combination which *doesn't* include a stick in the black one -> boot

email shuttle/distributor about it and get it RMA'd again tbh, if the memory works fine in other computers as you say, and the shuttle works fine with memory just in blue socket, i would think its safe to assume its mobo failure, unless im being really thick
