I assume I got DOA RAM...?

[frldyz]

As some of you know I've been making multiple posts on 2 builds I'm doing.

One of these builds is taking an older HP I had in the basement and installing Linux mint onto it.

I had to buy 2 RAM sticks ( 2x2gb ).

When I installed the Mushkin RAM the computer just beeoed 5x @ start. Tried with only 1 RAN, same thing.
Tried with the other RAM and booted just fine.

Put both back in and nothing but 5x beeps.

So I assume 1 stick is DOA?

I installed both Samsung stiks booted just fine.

So 1 of the Mushkin RAM sticks is DOA I assume since only 1 worked.

I can return these 2 Mushkin 2 newegg for a refund I assume?

What does RMA stand for?

RMA is used when returning DOA products?
