Should I put my ram back in?
-
Wah my computer is surviving on 512 ram now and it's super slow. I actually added in till it reached 1.5 ram last year. It was working fine until one day my computer went nuts, blue screens galore and had to reformat like 3 times? My uncle told me at the last time, he realized after taking out the additional rram windows could install without any problems.
The thing is it was fine for that little period? So should I put it back in? Really cannot tahan man. -
hmmm u add it in... if ok...then can gimme the 512ram?

think of days when i survived on 8MB of RAM....which was considered "a lot" in those days.... -
Hmm... are you sure you used the correct type of RAM?

did you note down the BSOD error msg? i wld suggest you to find the root of the problem instead of juz removing the ram.Originally posted by N|ck:Wah my computer is surviving on 512 ram now and it's super slow.

No man I didn't. I just think it's funny that it worked for quite awhile until one day my computer started screwing up for whatever reason.

Can you try putting back the RAM?
Then note down the BSOD error. Usually, when a BSOD occurs, Windows will restart in a few seconds, barely enough time to note down the errors. To stop the restarting, do this:
Right click My Computer and select Properties.
Select the Advanced tab. Under Startup and Recovery, click on the Settings button.
Under System Failure, untick Automatically restart box.
Click OK. -
Okay will try tmr. I won't lose any of my data right?
-
I wouldn't guarantee. Chances are, you won't.
-
back up lor, if afraid of losing data. If you really suspect the ram, just plug in piece by piece to test. if it can work with the 1Gb ram, and can work with the 512 ram, but cannot with both, then u better off with the 1Gb, right?

Before doing it, back up your data.
