Dear Community,
I have a Toshiba Satellite L40-139. Back in December I purchased some new RAM for it and installed it (physically I mean) myself.
Since then I have been experiencing quite frequent blue screens despite it being a quite fresh, up-to-date, legal install of Windows 7.
The details for my new RAM are:
2x1Gb
DDR2 PC2-5300S
667MHz
Qimonda HYS64T128021HDL-3S-BI
It has different timings and speed to my old RAM but according to my laptop specs I think it should be compatable.
I have read that you can change the speed and timings settings in the BIOS usually but my BIOS doesn't have these options.
Do you think I have 'bad RAM' or is it an issue with my machine having the wrong settings for the speed/timings?
I contacted Toshiba tech support about the problem back in December but still no reply!!
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Scott
