[Ham-Computers] Computer troubles

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

Loren,

I had the same problem starting just about this week last year.  My problem 
ultimately turned out to be memory errors caused by case temperature rise.  And 
I solved it (finally) by installing RAM with integral heat sinks.  But in 
working up to that solution, I installed additional fans and swapped out 
everything (one at a time) that had been changed during the upgrade.  I.e., system 
board, CPU & fan, power supply and RAM.  In my case, there were no other hardware 
changes during the upgrade except that the new system board(s) had integral 
ethernet and sound, so two accessory boards had been eliminated.  And no 
software changes.

What makes you suspect a conflict?  What else did you change at the same 
time?
