The whole screen gets blurry and there's white boxes all over. Computer beeps once, sometimes its a short beep, sometimes it's a long beep. Anyways, I checked the manual and it mean it's a Dram Refresh Error. I have no idea what that means and how to fix it, so I would be very very thankful if someone explained it to me and told me what should I do!

ATNO/TW Super Moderator Posts: 23473Loc: Woodbridge VA 3+ Months Ago Here is what your ram card/s look like http://www.oamao.com/Matos/ordi/guide/SDRAM.jpg They are held in place by two levers on each end. What grinch is sayin is basically push down both levers so the ram chip/s pop out. Then push them back in and make sure they are secure. You know if the are secure because the levers will realign themselves with the notches in the memory cards that keep them "locked in" saleen Newbie Posts: 8Loc: ND 3+ Months Ago There are no levers just a black casing around my comp with small tack looking screws. grinch2171 Moderator Posts: 6819Loc: Martinsburg, WV 3+ Months Ago ATNO was ta
