kisskiss Posted November 29, 2004 Share Posted November 29, 2004 hi, it's one year i have the same PC (ram, OS, cpu...) Last week i had to reinstall Win XP and during files copy it could not find files like d3dsound.dll .drv etc... i tried changing the RAM modules (Corsair twinx 2*512 ddr400) and when i removed one of them it worked and i could install XP and it works now. How can it be? I used the same stuff for 1 year and now if a use the other module (also alone) it makes that problem... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kisskiss Posted December 6, 2004 Author Share Posted December 6, 2004 hi, i bought 2*512Mbyte Twinx modules. I had a problem during installation of WinXP. It always found a corrupted file .dll I was suggested to check the ram, and using only one of the 2 modules i solved it. Only one, with the other i still had the problem. So with this one everything works, then i installed again the second module and mem tes gave an error at every step. With the good one only mem test work perfectly for 1 hour seems one of the modules is damaged...help please kisskiss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
