as far as i know I'm using DDRII.

Whats the likelyhood of all my ram being faulty?. i have noticed that applications do crash with references to memory now and again. (besides the ((quite rare)) blue screen of death) do you think i'm right in thinking this is a RAM problem?. i'm not entirely confident with my computing skills and having someone reinforce my judgement would be a good boost.

Did some more testing. this time i lowered the CPU's multiplyer to stock and re-ran the Memtests on each module, in each of the Motherboard's ram sockets.

Turns out 3 of the four modules are buggered. the "working" one i have installed now. Running Vista on a gig of ram is awful. heh.

I was very worried that the problem could've been the mobo, maybe even the processor (Considering i have it OC'ed. but no voltage changes) perhaps this still could be the case...agh....i hope i get my replacement RAM asap...
