Hello there, I have been having issues with memory.

Whenever I start a program it will crash, sometimes after a couple of minutes the computer will blue screen with the message "MEMORY MANAGEMENT ERROR" or something similar.

I replaced the memory and everything seemed to be fixed, but is there anything I can do to fix the replaced memory?

Test each stick of RAM with MemTest86+ and Prime95. When you find the bad stick, hopefully you still have warranty so you can RMA.

i would remove every stick you have and test them one by one in your system and try opening programs and see if its just a faulty dimm or its something more, have you tried overclocking them as if you have applied too much voltage they could be damaged
