Is there any way to fix or change broken lever on ram slot?? Its broken for year now and i want to upgrade my ram but i cant because pc wont boot with ram in that slot. I lost broken part but there is still left a half of lever in there.

The lever isn't really needed, you can run DRAM without it, just ensure well seated and might just give it a shove whenever you go in and blow dust out or whatever. The lever 'locks' it in to prevent 'chip creep' which can occur from DRAM going through heating (expanding), cooling (contraction) cycles.

ok, so i managed to boot it up i dont know what happened it just randomly booted, and when i went to my computer to check how much ram i have it said only 2 GB even if i had 2 sticks with 2 GB. Does this mean that my ram slot is dead?
