I would return that puppy in a heartbeat!

Well, maybe I would run a cool memory test (http://www.teresaudio.com/memtest86/) first, and if it passes that I would run the SiSoft Sandra (http://www.sisoftware.demon.co.uk/sandra/) memory burn-in module for 12 hours or so, just to be sure the problem is not with Windows or my motherboard.

But if I was in a hurry I would just swap it for a new one, if I could.
