hardware failure code

Hey all,


I have trouble with my Mac and ended up doing a deep hardware scan.


The Hardware failure code is - 4MEM/61/40000000:0x84938398


What should I do next? Does anyone know how I can fix this error or do I have to go off to the Apple people?


Cheers

Tom

That's a RAM problem.


Remove and reseat both modules, then run the test again. If the error still appears, remove one module and test again, then reinstall that one, remove the other and test again. You probably have a bad RAM modulethat needs to be replaced, but it's also possible that both modules are good and one of your slots is bad.
