    Just humor us... this is an easy test to perform, if you decide not to, then I wish you luck with your problem..

    have you run memtest86 to see if there are any errors?? You should run this test for several hours...
    no, I didn't, since I have no idea what it is or where I can find it at.

    ok... I just got back home, and I'm going to boot with only 0.5GB of RAM.
    do I need to check out something in particular?

    It's an .iso file...
    Do I need to boot with it, or can I run it under DaemonTools?

    You need to first burn it as an image file, then boot from it and let it run..

    Yeah, I figured it out.
    So I'm going to boot with that with all the RAM installed, and then if no results, I'll boot normally with 0.5GB. Is that ok?

    Sounds like a plan!!

    Keep in mind that you will need to run the test for several hours, preferably overnight, for accurate results.. you may want to try the boot test first..
