my friend owns an older laptop running an intel i3-7200u processor with just 4gb of RAM. I recommended upgrading to a laptop with more RAM, adding another 4gb, which he agreed to do. However, after the upgrade, his system still experienced a blue screen every two hours. This suggests the issue might not be about the amount of RAM added, but rather compatibility or other factors affecting performance. The fact that both RAM modules are 4GB DDR3 at 2133MHz could point to a potential mismatch with the motherboard or power delivery system.

It could be due to factors beyond speed or capacity—like whether the RAM is certified. What model and make are you looking at? Rarely does laptop RAM fit, but it’s possible if not properly verified.

It seems the RAM configuration might be inconsistent. Could you clarify if there are two 4GB sticks at 2133MHz? Are they from the same manufacturer and speed? If mixed, it should be two identical sets from the factory.

He combined a 4GB DDR4 Kingston chip with a 4GB DDR4 Hynix chip, both running at the same speed of 2133. The initial setup used Hynix, but later he swapped it in with the Kingston RAM.

The RAM didn’t integrate well initially. I recommend testing the new stick individually before combining them, and then run a tool like memtest to verify stability and functionality. It should function properly if the BIOS is set correctly and operates at the standard 2133mhz frequency.
