I'm betting China already has access to the chips. This deal was thwarted, but I doubt it was the only scheme for China to acquire what they want.

Well, installed new ram and got the same response. I did a quick couple of passes through memtest to make sure I didn't get a bad batch, but it came out clean. So it looks like this is software related. At least it spat out more information than the previous attempts although I have no idea if...

Ok, so new ram needed. Thanks guys, appreciate the guidance/knowledge.

Yeah, I was wondering why the live usb was ok too. Should I keep going with the memtest or stop?

Ok. So I've tried rebooting using a different kernel, no dice. Tried changing run level, no dice. I probably should have tried to recover using a live distro but I chose to run memtest86+ next. So far it's gone through 14 passes and there are 10 errors. Attached is a screen shot I took just...
