The Hallway: Bad RAM? Maybe not

Bad RAM? Maybe not

I just got a RAM upgrade for my work laptop, and it looked like the RAM was bad, memtest was failing, and I was getting random reboots.

But instead of ditching it, our IT support guy cleaned the RAM and the connectors on my computer with isopropyl alcohol and compressed air and put it back in. So far so good.
