I have this Toshiba satellite laptop that is now dead?? So what happened was I was trying to install windows and while installing I got an error (I always got it) when it was half way done installing i had to cancel the operation and wait until it was fully cancelled it took around 5-7 minutes then turn off the laptop and remove one stick of ram and the other changing the slot for each time I got that error I had 2×2GB DDR2 rams and that method worked but had to try a lot until it was succeeded, but then one time I wanted to go from Linux back to windows I was using that method and I was kinda sure it was gonna work but I had to do it for like 4-5 times cuz it was failing and getting an error had to change the slot... after the 2nd time I canceled the operation... But didn't wait until it was fully cancelled I shutted the laptop off I thought it would save me time... And after that it never turned back on
and the ram is okay I think I changed the ram with another good laptop it worked I put in the rams I got from my laptop and they worked too so it means the ram is okay...
What is the cause of this problem I'm trying so hard on getting it to work but absolutely no luck...
Is dit een goede vraag?
We need information in order to help you.
Exactly which model of Toshiba Satellite do you have?
What was the error message you got while trying to install Windows?
What version of Windows were you trying to install?
When you tested the RAM on another computer did you run a RAM test - often in BIOS there is a RAM test diagnostic.
