Hi this is my first time here! Well, I have some problems with my ram memory and i found out that this is the best place in search results about this kind of matters.
So the problem is that since last night, my laptop has this problem: the screen totally freeze after 10 minutes or at ramdom time. Then the pc opens with black screen and no respond. I desided to check the ram and everything seems ok, but now, though sometimes it starts normal, it still freeze or crash.
Anyway I found out what's wrong: i have 2 memory slots, first is 256mb from an unknown copmany and second is 512mb from kingston. The second one is working fine, because when i removed the first one there was no crash. So the first one seems to have problem. It sometimes works, sometimes not at all. Also I did a memtest with the first memory installed and got this window:
while a successful test should complete 100% without any errors, you can see there that there's unlimited errors at 3,9% with the same message always.
So... I guess I have to replace it? But is there any way to do something before I get to that conclusion? Fix it somehow? Or is it temp????? What do you think?
I use Windows XP sp3
Thanks in advance, cool site (btw this "links are not allowed for rookies" is not really nessesary)
