Solve : Problem with toshiba laptop!?

Answer» HI! I'm new here, I'm sorry if I make some mistakes in posting or in English or in anything else.
I have toshiba laptop which has 1.5 GB of RAM and 50 GB of HDD. Originally I had Windows XP installed on it. All of a sudden the laptop became slow and I couldn't turn it off (I could turn it off just if I press the button). So I tried to reinstall the windows with both Windows XP SP 2 and SP 3 discs and it would get stuck on INSTALLING NETWORK or something like that. Then I tried with Win 7 but it would show blue screen with some dll error. Once it even showed blue screen and message which was saying something like dumping physical memory... I can't REALLY remember now. Then I remembered to disable network settings in BIOS and then I succeeded in installing SP 2, but I had the same problem like before reinstallation, I couldn't turn it off, it was slow and in addition I couldn't access to SYSTEM in CONTROL PANEL and sometimes to DISPLAY SETTINGS. And also when I run a program or when I clicked on My DOCUMENTS or My computer it wouldn't show it in the taskbar. After all that I tried again but it wouldn't accept those same discs with SP 2 and SP 3. The screen was just black.
Can someone help me? I know that maybe all this is confusing. I would RECOMMEND you to try checking your RAM first. You may use memtest86+, which comes for free.

The RAM stick of 1 GB was bad. And then when I took it out I installed windows 7 - 32 bits, I don't know how but I succeeded and laptop is not slow at all. EVERYTHING is working fine. Thank you.Wonderful,truenorth
