A few days ago my one of the sticks of my best Team D9GMHs died - one of the best CAS3 sticks in the world (600MHz C3 validated). Last night it was so bad that I couldn't get my PC to boot with that stick regardless of settings - dual channel, single channel, different slots, low volts, high volts, different timings, etc). Having nothing to lose, I covered the gaps between the spreaders and the PCB with Vaseline, wrapped it in an antistatic wrapper and put it in the freezer for 24 hours.

Fast forward to this evening
I took it out and left it out to dry and air for an hour. After wiping off the Vaseline I stuck it in a Commando and booted. It booted 800MHz 4-4-4-8 1.8v without a problem, so I started clocking it. Eventually I was running SuperPi at 1200MHz 4-4-4-8 2.35v so I decided to run Memtest to see if it was really working again.

The Conclusion
MemTest has now been running for an hour at 1068MHz 4-4-4-8 at 2.15v, exactly what it could do before. Now this is where you come in. I need anyone with dead D9s to try what I did and report back. If it works this could be the find of the year!

* Please do NOT ask me to post validations/etc as this thread is NOT for showing off my RAM but rather to try to help others recover their dead D9s. This method is not guaranteed to work and I haven't had a chance to test long term results but going from not posting at 533MHz 5-6-6-18 2.5v to MemTesting at 1066MHz 4-4-4-8 2.15v is brilliant in my opinion, even if it turns out to be a temporary solution.
