I am trying to help a friend, I brought her computer to my house and replaced a bad stick of ram. Everything worked fine after this.
I started the machine many times for updates and scans, to be sure her problem was only ram. The machine started and ran like a champ.
I am sure this is not due to malware.
I took it to her house earlier today (45 minutes away) and it would not go past Dell splash screen. It would almost load to the end of the bar and freeze. (no keys would work)
Never had this happen before...
The computer is a dell optiplex running XP pro
