    That's very rare. Try rebooting while your machine is hot. If it passes the BIOS memory test, that's not the problem.

    You could also try removing and re-installing the DIMMs. If the problem goes away, you had bad contacts on the memory.

      slow, applications not working correctly, blue screens with IRQ_LESS_THAN_O R _NOT EQUAL TO
      with hex code possibly 0x00000000
      memory counting eratic when booting up.
      And no its not a rare thing to have memory fail.
      It is a common occurance depending on where and how much a pc or laptop is used. Also when your systm fans or cpu fans allow a system to over heat you will get the same types of problems
