Memory Problem
Sometimes when I turn my computer off, it won't come back on unless I take the cover off and remove the memory chip and reinstall it. Once I do this the computer will reinitialize and come back on again. Does anybody have a clue as to why this happens? Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi,
The only thing that comes to mind are dirty contacts on the RAM or RAM slots. Sine the system is off when you remove and replace the RAM. The system never knows that you did it, hence it does not sound like a system issue.
