Really?
Is everything working correctly now?
Is the system faster now with the new memory?

Yes, now everything is working normally. Even got rid of the hd issue in the pitstop test
Think it was weird that none of the tests indicated ram failure

We never checked the ram during all this so it is strange it was the one item that turned out to be bad.

I did a restore on a new HD (it was time anyway) but i did not change much about the speed. Did a memtest and got errors on one of the memory board. Change it (3 years warrenty) and back to normal 
Thank you all for helping me, this is a forum i'll recommend. Did a new topic on a windows 7 issue yesterday =)
