Once again I seem to be having memory problems.
It started the other day with random BSOD each one usually a different error from before. I have run memtest a few times and most times it'll be a disaster. Sometimes not running at all, sometimes getting to test 3 or 4 before it falls over with errors. Sometimes it shows the errors on channel 0 sometimes on channel 1? This is about the third or fourth time this has happened. It'll work great for months then memory nightmares pop up out of the blue.
I originally had OCZ Flex xlc 9200 which got replaced a couple of times. I now have Kingston memory which issupposed to be really good stuff and it has been for ages but now has started playing up. I dunno if it is my Mobo or my memory that's duff. The mobo is an Asus P5N32-e sli plus.
Any suggestions?
 
Well I have Tried pretty much every combination of memory stick in each socket and I'm still getting all sorts of errors. Sometimes it'll boot to desktop and then die or more usually it'll just BSOD while booting.
I'm assuming it IS memory related. F it isn't I don't even know where to start!
Helllllllp!

Latest update, I am now using one stick (1Gig) of my old OCZ memory and it appears to be ok so far. I just don't get whats wrong...
