New Server: Assembled; RAM not so good

Well, the new server parts arrived, and have been assembled. Most everything went well. The 2024MB of RAM I ordered was defective (I think), so i need to return it. Memtest86+ showed over 10million RAM errors on both sticks in under an hour. Thats somewhat disappointing. Tomorrow, I'll be at the mall to pick up a new stick to test. If that doesn't work, then the motherboard must be fried. The point is, something is going back to Geeks.com. Until then, nothing can get installed.
Also, I think my two older IDE drives are bad, but that could be the RAM too.
