My BIOS does a RAM test and check before it boots up the OS and about a week ago it tells me that I had one stick of RAM bad in. So I took it out leaving me only with one stick and the computer booted up fine. Is there anyway I could repair this RAM? It's not damged physical, never droppped it, never over clocked it. It just doesn't make sense. How could I go about fixing the stick of RAM? YOU'RE GONNA CARRY THAT WEIGHT.

You can't.

try cleaning the contacts and reinserting it.

pay a little bit more for your ram the next time you buy a stick (if you got money go cosasir)

You didn't mention how long you had it & if it had been working OK previously. If it's brand name RAM, it may have a lifetime warranty.... Test it with memtest86.... http://www.memtest86.com

Tom's advice is worth a try. Clean the contacts with a pencil rubber. They should become shiny, rather than dull. *AVOID* touching any components. To do this hold the stick by its edges. If you have an earthing wristband - use it. Often, just unplugging/plugging cures faults caused by a bad contact. Good luck - Keep us posted.

Good advice. Clean the contacts and reinstall it. Make sure it snaps into place. Skip
