How do you fix a bad memory module?
Last response: in Memory
Hello, how do you fix a defective memory module? I have a Compaq Presario PC, and 1 of the memory modules does not register any memory installed in the Bios. I have 4gb of memory, and I know this machine will register up to 3gb, but it only registers around 2gb.

All you can try is reseating the module! Sure it is not a confusion with available ram versus installed ram, that would be an OS issue. 32bit OS only 2GB available.I also had this problem with the two 1gb sticks. My computer came with 2gb two sticks of 1gb ram,but only 1gb would show up in the bios, so maybe it's a motherboard issue?
