    It doesn't take much to mess with a ram slot.
    I had a spider build a summer cabin in a ram slot and drive my system crazy.

    and how much would a new motherboard cost?
    Less than $100 (plus labor) for sure, but the hassles replacing a notebook motherboard can be a real pain.

    Have you blown out and dry cleaned the slot? you may have a bit of foreign material or even dust in the slot. Worth a try? Take a clean dry tooth brush or clean dry paint brush and compressed air.
    Yes, i've tried that ... :/

    Just make sure you backup all your data before taking it to a shop.
