I wanted a spooky spooky season but not like this
It’s not as bad as you think. If you read it carefully you’ll see that you can press any key to make the banner go away. I’m so glad I could help 🤗
Life saver, thank you 🙏
Easy fix, just get you a USB flash drive and convert it all to swap space, then make it your primary memory register 😎 no need to tell me I’m a genius, I already divined it in a bowl of alphabet soup
And when they opened their computer… the memory was soldered onto the motherboard! 🎃
This happened to me earlier this year, my friend had some spare ram randomly. I should’ve started the RMA process, but I was too lazy, idk if I still can.

Oh no friend, do you have a gofundme?
No that’s OK I’m just going to sell the box for scrap metal and go live in the woods.
The best option!
The cyberpunk reality will be computer users finding any way they can to keep their PCs running on an undernet disconnected from, but in parallel to, the CorpGov web. The latter is where you are tracked, monitored, monetized, ruled, caged, and where you own nothing but the CorpGov owns you. The former is an illegal hoard of history, media, software, 3d printing, and information disallowed on the main web.
No flying cars, no cyberpunk body parts, just people trying to keep from being controlled.
i mean my dad had a cool brain implant that significantly reduced his parkinsons symptoms. think neuralink but it actually works.

Can’t you just add a kernel parameter to not use specific memory addresses?
It is doable.
🤷
You might have some luck reseating the ram after cleaning the contacts with isopropyl for single bit errors
If the errors are in the same address range everytime you can definitely reserve that address range in kernel parameters and nothing will be assigned there, you just lose a small amount of memory (Windows can do this too but I can’t remember the process)
Last ditch effort is to manually adjust your ram timings, take note of what tests your ram fails on because there will be a corresponding setting for certain issues, this is very time intensive though and requires days of memtesting
The downside, you’ve a stick of bad RAM.
Upside, DDR4 is easier to find for DDR5 if you need that slot back in action.
Downside, DDR4 has seen significant price hikes as well.
Upside, you have your pick of brand and style.
Excellent argument for having a large number of small RAM sticks, rather than just one or two big ones… If one fails, it’s less of a loss that way.
Redundant Array of Incredibly expensive DRAM

My servers have this option, either as a mirror or with hotspares. Seems expensive.
That’s an expensive fail

I’m so sorry this happened to you.
Such is life 🗿
What brand is it?
G.Skill has a lifetime (sometimes 7 years) warranty on their sticks and they honored mine when it failed almost 3 years after purchase.
They take the whole kit back though, so you’ll be ramless for about 2 weeks.
If I win the lotto I got you man, so sorry to hear. That is absolutely awful :(
