[SOLVED] memtest86 crash

[Myzplitx]

hello, so i was experiencing this crash after entering desktop after i placed a new single stick of ddr3l 1600mhz ram, so i ran memtest but unfortunately the moment the scanning started this happens, does it confirm that i have a faulty ram?

Probably. But did you also combine the RAM with your OLD RAM too? If so it could just be the mixed modules.
Remove the new RAM module and see if it goes back to normal.

my laptop only got 1 RAM slot, the other one is onboard but it died so i removed it in my local repair shop.

Try a single module if it doesn't work, you broke your laptop.

Open your laptop and look at your drive. Last time I saw this it was the drive that was almost disconnected from the connectors. The stupid laptop had a drive enclosure so big that the drive was almost loose in that enclosure moving around. I was shocked that nothing was screwed down or it was missing a part behind the HDD that makes it not move at all.

Not saying it's not the RAM but it could be something else that was caused by the removal of the onboard + adding the new RAM that caused another issue.

so i replug the drive and it still crash, i'll just return the RAM and ask for a new one.
