About a month or so ago, I got a new memory stick. A nice 512MB one. For all this time it's run pretty well.

Then today it starts... not working so well. In fact it doesn't work at all. I switched it's position to another memory slot... and it's registering as a 256MB stick.

What is it about me and computers? Am I alternating between extremes of cursed and blessed? AUGH! I can't afford ANOTHER memory stick now, not at the prices they're going at. This is insane. *muttergrumblerazzinfrazzin*

I have 1GB of DIMM RAM lying around after upgrading to new RAM after getting a new motherboard, etc. Wanna buy? Make me a reasonable offer.

Might want to check with the manufacturer of the RAM. Most of 'em do lifetime warranty on their stuff, so it should be a small issue to get it replaced.

Sounds like some chips were faulty on the module. You might have to shell out $10-15 for shipping, but hey... it's cheaper than $100+ for another DIMM.

Augh. That just sucks. Do you still have your reciept? It might even be worth taking it back to the shop you bought it at if it's only been a month or so.. I know Memory Express back in Calgary took care of you for the first three months before having to put it in on a manufacturer's warranty.
