Yeah, that means one of the sticks are failing, replace the RAM immediately, but if you can run with one stick then run with one stick. Also yes stop the test, the RAM is failing.
Thanks guys for your help would you advise that I increase the ram apparently I have the option to increase it to 8gb or would I be best to just replace what I take out would there be less issues if I increase it or would this cause more problems ....really appreciate all your help guys
Well, one of the RAM sticks are failing, you can't go with that option, it won't help.
Sorry to be a pain so if I replace the two or whatever is there that should solve the problem then
I would keep testing until you know for sure if it is a stick or slot, so test each stick in each slot separated from the others.
Hi guys sorry only just saw your post axe0 I removed the cover from my laptop I take it I should remove one of the memory cards from its slot and rescan the mem again .....but which card should I remove there are two slots with two cards the top one has a 2gb card in it and the one under it has a 4gb card ( is this correct as I thought they had to be equal as in 2 x 1gb or 2 x 2gb ) as far as I know iv had the laptop from new it's never been opened or repaired by any one also the 2 cards are different makes the 4gb is Kingston and the 2gb is a hynix make is this right I wii put a picture of them if you guys could advise me on what I need to do now ....do I carry on scanning with 1 or both ...and do I have it in the top or bottom slot ....or should i just replace the two cards with new ones but what size each one i think the maximum upgrade is 8gb for the acer aspire 5749 .....I really am at a loss here thanks for your help guys .
I tried to upload the pictures of the memory cards but was getting server error I will try in the morning
