Just a guess, it could be the sockets and not the sticks.
How do I determine if it's the sockets and not the sticks. Or if the RAM really is bad or not?

Use a good stick and try in all socket.

What if it's not the RAM and its the CLASSPNP.SYS?

I just ran Memtest again and my RAM has been through 1 pass and 8 tests with no errors.

I suggest a
startup repair . If that doesn't work, perhaps a
system restore will.
If neither of those work, we can start diagnosing a hardware problem.
Finally after about 10-15 tries of clicking on the repair your computer in the Windows 7 disc it worked. I woke up today after leaving memtest on all night, thought I would do a repair, not thinking it would work, but it finally worked! Now I'm afraid to turn my computer off.
