Blue screen of death- memory management

willietherock · 2007-10-04 00:34:04

My computer is crashing at least 5 times a day and dumping memory. Often when just browsing the internet and always if I put on any pc game. 95% of the time the blue screen error is memory management. Help!

Run memtest and see if it comes up with any errors.

Time to get new RAM. Download cpu-z for info on your RAM type or go to www.crucial.com.

How many sticks of RAM have you, do you know? If you have two, then only one might be bad but as mentioned I think it is time for some new RAM. crucial.com or shop4memory.com for decent prices.
