Re: [Simply Computers] Problems rebooting old computer

 

You were on the right track with the memory error. If new memory doesn't
cure it though you may be looking at replacing the board. Have you tested
individual slots? You might have one that's no longer working well but if
the others work you might be able to keep the thing going a while longer.
