| For reference your motherboard is made by Foxconn. That RAM should be fine. It's possible I guess that both are fine separately but one has a fault when running dual channel. As it is hard to narrow down which one has the fault I'd return both and get them swapped.

| Slots should be in pairs. 1 and 2 - Both 1GB 3 and 4 - Both 512MB Miss matching slots like: 1 and 4 - 1GB 2 and 3 - 512MB Will cause performance issues, even if it works it isn't working the way it was intended.

| Best bet is to return the 1GB sticks, that's the simpliest way of finding out if they are dodgy or not. ![]()

| You say the 1GB RAM components are DDR2 (probably 667s) PC2-5300. You don't mention the specifications of the 512MB Sticks. :-( |

| sorry, they came with the com, they are also pc2 5300, when i bought the GB's i made sure the speed was the same, or atleast i think the number represents speed lol, they work together as right now i have 512's in slots 1 and 2 and then 1gb in slot 4 and its working fine however,
__________________
process of elimination..... the 1gb i have not go in right now, caused blue screen alot last night even when it was in the same slot 4 as the other one is now, so i think ive narrowed it down again to one faulty stick, im going to take it down to some shop today, hes a great guy maybe check it for me My System: Mine

| jusused the programe orthos you got on your download bit, checked both 1gb individually and they are fine, put them together and there is a error within 4 seconds, then i put 1gb and 2x512mb in leaving one slot open and its fine, it just seems these two 1gb memory sticks wont work together, i have noticed that the model number (the number under what appears to be a barcode, which is on a sticker on the ram stick) are different on the two 1gb sticks, i would of thought this would be a big deal as they are both identical otherwise
