Recently starting building computers for a customer, using components
they supply, and have run into an alarming percentage (10?) of
motherboards that fail to recognize one RAM slot. Swapping the MB puts
them in order, and so far the customer has not had any problem returning
the bad MBs for credit to his vendor.

Is this a known epidemic? RoHS associated? I'm not being faulted for
this issue, but also wondering how likely it is that my (experienced)
employee is damaging the RAM slots when he plugs in the RAM.

All reasoned feedback appreciated.

MB manufacturer?
