Try the old RAM again. See what happens.

Replaced the RAM with the old 2x1gb and no problems.

Does this mean my new RAM is faulty?

Faulty or the wrong type. What kind of RAM is it?

You should always test it with memtest after an upgrade.

how do i preform a memory test?

Its crucial memory.
2gb, 200pin, 256mx64, pc2-5300

Can you post a link to where and what memory you purchased? Also, which macbook do you have?

If you have the white or black macbook 1.83, 2.0 and 2.16GHz C2D and CD macbook, then this looks to be the correct memory. The core duo macbooks could only be upgraded to 2Gb ram. The core 2 duo macbook could be upgraded to 4Gb ram and only 3Gb ram was usable.
I haven't had any issues using third party memory in any of these macbooks. Use/install one stick at a time and run the macbook and see if you can isolate which stick may be bad. Some of the

I have a new white macbook core due 2, about 6 months before the uni body was released.

It is capable of being up graded to 4gb ram. I tried doing one at a time and both caused it to crash!

I have now posted the RAM back to crucial. Do you think it was a faulty batch or something with my Macbook that is causing this?

 

[eman]

When you have your ram back in, go to the Apple logo/about this mac/more info and look on the left hand side for memory. Click on memory and look on the right hand side and it will tell what speed your memory is. I'm guessing you aren't using 667MHz ram. What is your ram speed?

 

[csjxx]

Ive checked now the original RAM is back in and its running at 667MHz, when i receive my new replacement i will see what happens. If the problem reoccurs i guess i will have to keep 2gb of RAM

 

[csjxx]

Hey, just thought i would update what is happening. I returned the RAM to crucial and within a few days I have received new parts back.

Installed this morning and ran a few tests, e.g. maxed the ram out a few times. Have been running for a few hours now without any problems, not like before.

I also installed a new hard drive yesterday "Western Digital 500gig".

Im guessing the problem must of been a faulty stick of RAM.

No problems! Fingers crossed

Glad to see it's working.
