re: Question about 'Dealing with Bad Memory (RAM)' Friday, February 28, 2003 at 11:38 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Ricer46 (22838 messages posted) I am guessing you have 4 DIMM slots, and just added a fourth? Many motherboards can not supply enough power to run 4 DIMMs even though they have 4 slots. If you know the make and model of your motherboard, you might see if there are reviews for it on www.tomshardware.com. That's where I think I have read about this problem - I have not experienced it.
