I have noticed that, on occasion, RAM with gold contacts isn't recognized
by a system that has tin RAM-socket contacts. As I am not aware of any
basic reactive property between gold and tin (though I do not thoroughly
recall all of my chemistry instruction), this interaction puzzles me. My
question is: Why would, or how could, such a problem arise?

I would appreciate any insight provided in this matter.

Regards,

Scott Rees
