OK, thanks for that. But I did take the module out, and put it in another laptop, and memtest86 still failed, and in much the same places. Also my wife had been having various troubles with the machine, which is why I suspected the RAM. Anyway, I have coughed up €18 for a new 1GB module, which hopefully will pass all the tests. (I said the machine was a Dell Inspiron, but I see on looking at it that it is actually a Latitude D610.) -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
