My thought wasn't that there was a problem with your machine's socket,
rather that their
module might have been sending a faulty or crossed signal. I guess I'm
surprised that the
Crucial techs weren't more alarmed at the situation - memory chips *are*
sometimes faulty,
and a bad one is not a big cause for concern, but your experience suggests
the possibility
of a bad module design, which would be a big problem for them.
