when i boot up my comp and the bios runs the memory check it just keeps recycling it never stops.. the only way i can move on is if i hit esc.. is this a memory problem or a mother board problem... im using 2 stick or corsair xms 3500 ram with the nf-7 rev 2 mobo
 
Go into the BIOS Advanced Features section, and make sure that you have the Quick Self Test option Enabled. If this option is Disabled, you computer will cycle through the memory test 3-5 times.

If this option is already Enabled in your BIOS, then try each stick of ram 1 at a time and see if that helps. You might also try different memory slots.
 
thank you so much.. that was the problem. funny how little things can drive you crazy. i thought my memory was bad.
