[Lancaster] memory error?

Hi all,

I'm getting intermittent system freezes. The whole system just locks up 
and nothing works, including ctrl-alt-f1. I've tried running a memory 
test, both from the hard disk and a usb cd drive, and in both cases the 
test program freezes with junk on the screen. There doesn't seem to be 
any pattern to this - sometimes it happens just after I switch on, and 
sometimes after an hour or so.

Is it worth getting some new memory and trying that? (I've tried just 
taking the memory chip out and putting it back in).

Any help appreciated.

cheers,

andy
