Hi

I have 1GB of kingston RAM in my computer but one or two times in a month my computer fails to start (i,e CPU starts but there is no display on monitor) and removing and inserting RAM makes my computer work again.
So I want to know why this problem occur ?

There is nothing to worry in this.Make sure your cabinet is properly closed.Also clean RAM chip and RAM slot.
