I am running Windows 2000 on a dell laptop, I am having a very strange problem, I have 2 PC 100 128 MB memory cards in my laptop...if i run both memory cards in the laptop, the blue screeen of death will constantly pop up, but if I use just one memory card (it doesn't matter which one) the laptop will run fine.....any thoughts on why this might be happening

Get a can of compressed air and try cleaning both of them(ram slots) out could be that dust or something of the such is causeing a faulty connection. If that dont work....One of your ram slots could possibly be going bad.

some of the techs here think it could be a mother board problem....but i don't see how if it works fine with one card in either slot

i am not sure what the error message is right now....i am trying to get it to come back up, i called dell with the message and they said to reinstall the operating system, so i did...still not working though

Well when you do get it agian post it. Phone techs dont know shit....trust me I worked for a call center for gateway. Reinstall and reload is the solution to all there supposed problems.
