I been trying to figure out why my system fails prime95 after a couple hours.

I ran memtest86 with the default tests and it came up with no errors, I let it run the extended tests for hours and a second time and it actually came up with an error!

So I'm going to start swapping my memory to try to pinpoint this problem! I am running dual channel with 2 mushkin 512mb chips.

Do you think mushkin would warranty memory that works fine in winXP but fails memtest86? Would you RMA ram if it gave you an error in extended tests with memtest86? Obviously an error that only happens after hours of testing.

Yes they should warranty it if it fails Memtest86. And yes I would definately RMA.
