Hello,

Sometimes i get BSOD error on my PC...page fault error or some sort of different error. I don't know why that error occurs due to bad RAM or due to Hard disk. I have 2 GB DDR-2 Ram installed in my mobo having Athlon 3600+ Dual Core processor... I tested RAM with memtest and i got 1800+ errors in the test..the test was still on but i restarted the pc after 1 and half hour. So should i change my RAM after getting this number of error?

yes but try cleaning the ram slots and rerun memtest.
