Your computer freezes, crashes randomly, or runs painfully slow — but your hard drive seems fine, and there are no viruses. One often-overlooked culprit? Faulty or insufficient RAM (Random Access Memory).
At Gary’s Computer Repair Service, we diagnose and fix RAM-related issues for laptops and desktops across Dublin. Whether it’s a bad memory stick or a simple upgrade, we’ve got your back.
🔍 Common Signs of RAM Issues
1️⃣ Random Freezing or Crashing
If your system crashes without warning or gives you the dreaded Blue Screen of Death (BSOD), faulty RAM could be the cause.
2️⃣ Sluggish Performance While Multitasking
If opening multiple browser tabs or switching between apps slows your computer down, it might not have enough RAM.
3️⃣ Failure to Boot or Constant Restart Loops
Bad memory can prevent your computer from starting up properly — or it may reboot endlessly.
4️⃣ Programs Keep Closing or Not Opening at All
Apps like Chrome, Excel, or Photoshop may crash on launch if the system memory is unstable.
5️⃣ Beeping on Startup
Certain BIOS beep codes indicate RAM errors — we can help decode and diagnose them.
