re: many applications crashing randomly Tuesday, July 28, 2009 at 2:57 am Windows Vista Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Charlie Hadden (1209 messages posted) Sounds like a ordinary memory failure. Find yourself a memory diagnostic program (many good free ones around) and test your memory thoroughly. You want software that will stress your memory. It is also better to use software that will do this in a DOS state without going through a normal boot-up. Another way is, if you have more than one stick of memory (a probability) you can try to remove 1 stick at a time. Do this for each stick and then test to see if the problem goes away. Check you manual or manufacturer site for instructions on particular requirements of filling the memory slots. Many motherboards now a days require that certain memory slots be filled first over others.
