Dead Stick of Ram...
Posted: Sat Mar 22, 2003 12:53 pm
Hey Guys.. I have a dead stick of 512mb PC133.. While yes, I know this stuff is getting cheaper, It's Samsung chips on CBG pcb? Those are the only letters I could find on it. It also has ©2000 on it.. So I'm guessing it's at least 3 years old. I don't know if my search for who made this ram would turn up any type of Lifetime warranty on it. I was just thinking I could RMA it and save some money. The only #'s I could find on it were PC133U-333-542-Z which is right below the 512MB on a sticker, and another sticker that has 38832MJ13512MB the last part obviously being the size of the stick. Now, the first number took me to a website that says it's Hyundai, so I may have typed all this in a waste of time.. Lets see.. *digs a little more* Ehh.. The only thing I could find doing a search for Hyundai ram was dealers.. bah.. I guess this could be hopeless. The stick of ram works, but it's a dud. It failed MemDoc, and if it's in my computer, it will freeze up about 2-5 minutes after complete boot. Take it out, which brings me back down to 512mb, no problems.. So, any help would be appreciated, in the mean time, I will keep digging.. TIA eGo
