Diagnose Faulty RAM

by Kiven on November 13th, 2007

Do you experience frequent OS crashes? Tried checking your OS, updating drivers and running anti virus application but to no avail? Maybe one of your RAM modules is bad or faulty. I’m assuming that you made sure to get a reliable power supply as well.

Your PC’s memory modules might be failing. Check them with Microsoft’s Windows Memory Diagnostic tool. Burn the program onto a CD (Burnatonce is quick and easy) and then boot from the CD.
