Hi,Can anyone help me please I have a AMD barton 2,500 with a Asus A7N8X Deluxe motherboard with 1024 Ram with a GF6600 GT card 80 Gig hardrive and Running Windows XP Pro.I switched off the pc last night after playing a wonderfull game of Quake 4.
This morning when I switched it on everything booted through ok to the desktop screen but everything was frozen even the hard drive light was off and that is normally flickering.
I rebooted the machine but the hard drive wouldn't come on and the pc said it had failed the memory test and all I got was a blank screen.
I can't get into the bios or safe mode

Regards Philip

Get MemTest from another comp. Make the cd and run it on your machine for at least four hours.

Monitor the working MemTest screen for errors. If ram has gone bad, you will see errors. Go from there.
