I have a Intel Pentium 4 3.0E GHz (HT) with Windows XP Pro SP2.
Since a very long time my system would at any time shut down and restart again on its own without warning.
After elemating vurus, spyware, malware I zeroed on to my Ram modules.
My RAM modules are inserted in Socket 1 and Socker 3 on the mobo DIMM sockets.
On checking with RAMCHECK software I note that in several steps it reports "Failed".
On inserting the RAM modules in Sockets 2 & 4 the same results.
On checking the individual modules one by one in Socket 1 the results are Successful".
However on checking the individual modules in Sockets 2,3 & 4 the report says Failed.
DO I ASSUME THAT THE DIMM SOCKETS ON THE MOBO ARE FAULTY ?
Since the last one month I am using only one Ram module in DIMM Socket 1 and since then the system has never at any time shut down and restart as was earlier.
The only defect is that my system has slowed down.
I have not been able to check the Ram modules on any other syster.
