Try using the memory test program from http://oca.microsoft.com/en/windiag.asp. This will test your memory in bios. You will need to run the exe file then save an image to a cd or floppy

it is a sort of issues, yet only a sprint experimentation and time will sparkling issues up. i will assume you're familiar with installation reminiscence modules and function made particular the clips snapped into place after pushing down on the reminiscence. First attempt booting off a single new reminiscence stick interior the 1st reminiscence module slot. If that works, attempt an identical try with the 2d module (additionally interior the 1st slot). If that works, the reminiscence itself is physically powerful. look on the reminiscence modules. there is probable a label with the value - something like PC2-5300, or it would desire to be in MHz (e.g. 667). positioned the SLOWEST reminiscence interior the 1st slot. positioned an identical sized module interior the 2d slot, and the different pair in slots 3&4. maximum motherboards get their reminiscence velocity settings from the 1st module, and prepare it to all others. you may nicely be waiting to set the reminiscence velocity on your laptop's BIOS at startup, however the motor vehicle placing is wonderful for many purchasers. If the 1st module occurs to be speedier than the others, your laptop would overdrive the slower reminiscence playing cards, inflicting reminiscence errors and crashes.
