Yep, though it could be just one RAM slot so you might try moving the RAM sticks about. It might also be that the CPU wasn't aligned quite right when you replaced it. >>> I've tried windows repair, and it didn't fix it. >> Did you try Safe Mode (assuming that's still around in Win10)? > > no, but I will. stupid M$ has made it more difficult to get into safe > mode. it used to be that you just pressed F8 at boot. With Memtest86 failing then that means the problem isn't in Windows anyway. -- __ __ #_ < |\| |< _#
