I have been having a problem lately with my p.c. I decided to upgrade the ram in my Packard bell pc from 1g to 4g. I went on the crucial website and did their scan and they suggested the upgrades which i purchased. I haven’t had a problem with the computer for about a year. Then suddenly a few weeks ago it started randomly rebooting itself.
After a week or so i decided to contact crucial and tell them that i think the RAM i have is faulty, they upgraded it to a faster type as the ram i had was obsolete.
In the meantime i put my old ram back in and everything was fine.
So i installed the new RAM and continue to get the random reboots and blue screen of death problem. I get a really long error message like 0x000008e…etc maybe 4 or 5 different reasons for it crashing.
I’ve thought that my computer can’t take the new ram for some reason, but i can’t find any drivers for my motherboard on the giga-byte website as it’s a packard bell specific model.
I’ve also ran registry cleaners, but it doesn’t seem to help, i was even thinking of buying RegCure to see if this helps but i would like to know if it is the RAM that is causing the problem.
I’ve even ran a memory diagnostic check at the start up and the test states that the ram is working as intended.
I’ve come here to see if anybody can give me some advice on what to do and try and fix this, i really don’t want to be stuck with 1g of RAM.
Thanks Alot
