GA-EX58-UD5 and G.Skill DDR3-1600 6GB issue?

So, then you are sure this is because of some bent pins, right? And, could it be other causes? Just to try them before removing the CPU (as i will have to buy some thermal compound before, and i don't have too much experience doing it) because this is a really random problem, and maybe i won't see if it solved the problem untill i get a dual boot, if it ever does again.
Also maybe there is any kind of test or something to confirm it before doing it or to know if it could be other thing?
And one last question, if i leave it as it is now (with the random dual boots and blocking the PC after windows has started and working normally for a few seconds), could it cause some damages or problems (HDD, CPU or motherboard or Windows), or this will only be a bit a annoying?

Hope you can help me with these. Thanx anyway.
 
well.. reseating it fixed for me. no bent pins btw.

one poster said that there is little tolerance for error. wrong seating could cause a lot of problems and reseating it fixed it for him. I will post back here if the disapearing memory problems comes back again.

if you dont hear from me again, it's probably fixed.
