I have a system with following config :
1. intel G965RY
2. intel C2d e4400(2 GHZ)
3. 2GB DDR2 RAM
4. LG DVD writer.
5. Seagate 500GB HDD
6. Nvidia 8600GT graphics card

the problem is that when i switch on the system It gives 3 beep sound and nothing happens. I checked it on net and found out that the 3 beeps indicate Memory Problem. So i changed the RAM modules but to no avail. But sometimes when i take out all the components and re-assemble it, the system runs and after that again if i start the system the same problem comes. What may be the problem... Please help.

The culprit is your motherboard --> 965 ry
i have the same mobo and i have to get it replaced 3 times in last 1.5 yrs.... 2 of which are memory slot issue.....
I have noticed that the the problems arises with intel original motherboard whenever you ad some cards like TV tuner and graphic cards.... else they were really good motherboard.....
