| 570321 | 2007-07-19 14:43:00 | Yes, if the RAM is corrupted or has errors in it, then there will be problems with the operation of the computer mainly freezes and even BSOD's. | beeswax34 (63) | ||

| 570324 | 2007-07-20 20:46:00 | Sounds like the new RAM module may be faulty Have you tried running memtest (www.memtest86.com)? If you dont have cd burner software but you do have a floppy drive, you can download this file (www.memtest86.com). You will need to check each RAM module individually. If you aren't confident inside your computer case, OR the computer is under warranty, I would take it back to whoever installed the RAM, and tell them whats wrong. Otherwise; follow their instructions: Windows Installation For windows installation begin by downloading either the Pre-Compiled Windows package to build a boot-able floppy disk or an ISO (zip version) to create a boot-able CD-ROM. After the file is downloaded an extract must be done to uncompress the file(s). To extract right click on the downloaded file and select the "Extract All" option. The extract option will let you choose where the files will be extracted to. To build a bootable floppy go the the folder where the files were extracted and click on the Install icon. The floppy disk will appear to be unformatted by Windows after the install is complete. To build a boot-able CD-ROM use your CD burning software to create an image from the un-zipped ISO file. Since Memtest86 is a standalone program it does not require any operating system support for execution. It can be used with any PC regardless of what operating system, if any, is installed. Reboot the computer with the floppy or cd disc inserted. You will need to ensure that cd drive or floppy (depending on which one you are wanting to boot) is set as the first bootable device in the CMOS setup screen - acquired by pressing f8 (usually) on startup. Again, if you are unsure about any of this, take it in to your computer repairer |
