Don't be surprised if both sticks are fine on their own but not together. It's possible for one stick to have drifted a tad in it's operation so that it works on its own but not with another stick (which hasn't drifted).

Interesting. Didn't think of that. I just assumed they work on their own (like hard drives do). I'll see if it happens - and failing that, I'll put the other one back in and see if it occurs when both are in together. I almost wish it happened more often, so I could get this tracked down quicker lol

They have replaced the RAM now. Didn't seem to be the CPUs causing it (they did a stress test), and all the other components seemed ok. So hopefully this was the culprit, and it fixes it :cool:
