    Might be some stuff corrupt. Depends how "bad" the ram was I guess. :)
     
    You'd probably have a failure while it was installing or a BSOD or something though to warn you.

    No , a bad windows isntall couldn't hurt your RAM.
     
    If you're sure the memory you installed windows with was bad, I'd just reinstall it to be sure. Otherwise you'll second guess the causes of errors down the road.
