I was playing a game for several hrs when the game crashed and i was returned to windows.. i noticed when i ran IE that the default page bled i could see the background but if i went to a website like www.excite.com no probs but if i returned to my page it bled.. so i decided to reboot and it hung i turned it off and back on and seemed ok i decided to run norton diag and test the mem it failed right off the bat i was a little nervous so i shut down the pc counted to 10 and turned it back on and redid the test it had no errors.. i download docmem from www.simmtesters.com and ran that it only runs from dos so i had to reboot to dos and it did a diag that took 15-20 min for my 256meg chip it had the option of burn mode but i just picked the quick test.. the test passed no errors found.. now was this a fluke that the first time it failed or ?
One other note that my room was warm or hot the mb temp was 95F and cpu 52.5C and this is when i was getting trouble i turned the A/C on and the temp droped to 89F for MB and 48.5 for cpu so the only thing i could think of was a fluke or maybe it was a little to warm for the memmory?
Any suggestions?
The chip is lifetime but it would be a B*tch to return because i dont have a extra memory chip here so i would be without a pc for about 10 days or so..
any suggestions?
