To start I have a laptop. I believe its my RAM but not sure. I play a game that use to have no problems what so ever when running it, then about a month ago my computer randomly "broke". Outta nowhere it started not to be able to handle very much processes, couldn't open a window, start a program, then explorer would freeze but still be able to move my mouse. So, i tried to system restore it failed after many attempts to fix it, I finally had to do a factory reset. And now my computer runs fine except this game. Randomly it will pause for a few seconds or when there is alot of stuff going on. I tried to lower the video settings but no prevail. My computer now randomly will click then beep. I tried to take out both ram cards and see if one failed but they both booted and my comp reads the 8gb I have. Is it my RAM that is failing? Feels like it isnt grabbing enough memory....

Hm.... clicking... slowness...

Sounds to me like a hard drive failure...

Perhaps your HDD is going bad (slows down whole PC) and your ram sticks may have gone bad.

But still, 8GB RAM is plenty! Even if one stick is out and 4GB remain, thats still plenty for alot of things!
I'd do a disk check on that HDD.
