Bad memory prevents computer switchon?
Hi.
On three occasions recently I have turned on the power and been presented with a dead computer. On all three occasions, after pulling power cables, reseating cards, checking power cables, I have been able to get the computer running by removing a faulty memory stick.
The machines were one AMD X2-4200+, unknown motherboard, and two compaq desktops.
In the past memory problems have always left me with a live machine that either reports a problem on the screen or beeps at me. Has anyone else noticed this change in behaviour?
