Seg faults are generally hardware - especially when memtest shows errors. �It sure won't compile that way. �First make sure the stick is 1) in properly, and 2) is the correct one for that motherboard. �take out one stick and leave the original - then run memtest. �If you get errors then take that stick out and �put the new one in and see what happens.
