..hi there again!..did you try to swap or replace a new memory to your current memory?..there is a chance that it is your memory slot or your memory dimm that has been damage..if the issue still continue then tell your customer to buy a new motherboard that fits to its specifications..no more headaches!..i hope it helps!..^_^..
