Yes, you got it exactly. you can put a peice of tape on the chips to make this a non-issue...you jsut have to pull it out really quick, and really straight, same goes for plugging the old one back in.

I'm sure you set bios back to raid, but it sounds like this change isn't happening although you've told it to.

Intel techs(from speaking with them when I worked in pc store) suggest flashing bios with just one DIMM installed, in third slot. Maybe you want to do this as well.

you could have a bad driver in your OS isntall as well..have you tried safe mode?
