Sounds like the contacts on the RAM card could use some cleaning. Whipe a pure rubber eraser over the contacts a few times, and re-insert the RAM-card into the socket - just remember to blow off rubber garbage. Also check the RAM-sockets for dust or dirt - a vacuum cleaner can help with that. You want a wild suggestion? If there's too much cooling paste on the CPU, it'll start to run when hot, and since it's electrically conductive, it can destroy your CPU and mobo...
