    Greetings, xenon585...

    My first thought would be the new RAM, especially since that's when your troubles seem to have started...I'd try reseating, swapping sticks, using only one stick, etc...you might also try running Memtest86, a RAM diagnostics tool...

    The IRQ Not Less or Equal can also be caused by other things, however - were there any other symptoms shortly before or during the RAM upgrade?
