I been getting weird problems last 2 days, having errors on Quickpar and Winrar programs. I would test the archive and have no errors. However, when I unrar it, it said the fiels are currupt. I ran both the microsoft memory test and memtest86 and it seems like 1 single address is failing every test. Does that mean one of my mem sticks is defective? Is this the problems that's causing weird problems when I'm extracting/rebuilding files? Is failing on every test on a single address a huge problem? My computer seems relatively stable. Oh yeah, I was getting power calibration error and primodvd is also giving me errors when trying to burn. Hope someone can help me pinpoint the problem. Thanks.
