I'm not the only one who has problems with samsung memory. Ask around.
Why do you think these are the cheapest on the market - because they
bought the masks to older technology parts. I'd rather have NEC, or
hitachi stuff in my machine. By the way - why did the upgrade with
samsung parts fail ?
(I have nothing against Korean made parts - I just find japanese and american
more reliable !)
