Simple. Put the original RAM modules back in and see if OS X boots fine or not. If not, OS X bits may be corrupted. If so, your new RAM module (or one or both modules) is defective. Continue experimenting and see what works and what doesn't, try to isolate the bad module. -- Eugene Lee -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
