try clean ur rams' golden contact region by rubbing with an eraser

 

[Steyr69]

Hi all,

I managed to boot up the pc....looks like it is the rams.
I use the eraser trick n it works!!

So I added another extra 1GB ram...and it is 3GB ram.

But I still find it slow.....the CPU is Athlon X2 7750 ....
Using onboard Geforce 8100.....

If I pump in a video card (the reason why I change my PSU)....will it be better?
Im trying to run Full HD....but looks like there were some jittering in the image.
Very slight.
This is why I added extra ram because my system using onboard.

Not really playing games...but is more for surfing n watching HD videos.

Or simply just....dump the system?
