yup, did it all.. tested the original module only, tested the added module only, swapped them.. the error remains the same, i.e. the same test fails at the same address.. that's what makes it so hard for me to find a solution: it's not one module that fails and the other works, i could replace it, i could even replace them both given the cheapness of memory but i don't see what that would do because memtest doesn't really lead me to the conclusion that it's the normal ram that causes the pain.. it still could be anything.. rather frustrated, but thankful, of course, frank.
