Second bad module


BPro

This is the second bad module you have sent me to replace my bad memory. I know this cannot be a fluke. You are obviously sending reconditioned or returned modules as replacements. Obviously you are not testing them thoroughly. Please send me another module, I don't have money to throw away on new ram. My mailing costs are adding up though and this is a big hastle. With the new module I get a bios bad memory beep code http://forum.abit-usa.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=13527. My next memory will probably not be Corsair.

All of their memory is new. NO ONE gets reconditioned memory. Come to think of it, I haven't heard of ANY memory manufacturer doing that.

 

Now, are you testing both sticks in the same slot?

Yes I tested them both in the same slot. The first replacement module had errors when I ran memtest. This one, the second causes the described bios error. My other module works fine by itself. This is a big hastle. If these modules are new, what are the odds that I get two bad modules in a row? To top things off, when I sent both my modules in the first time I bought some more Value Select. I bought two modules, one of them had errors on it in Memtest. I returned the memory.

 

I just want this one replaced under warranty please and if the replacement doesn't work I will probably just throw it in the trash. I am not a tech, this has caused me much trauma trying to figure out what the hell has been going wrong with my computer.
