Error blue screen and memory issue on your device.
four potential issues might impact your PC: missing BIOS updates, faulty RAM, corrupted Windows files, and a problematic Windows update that caused problems. To begin troubleshooting, start with the simplest steps—first run sfc /scannow and DISM to check for Windows installation issues. If that fails, disconnect all disks, install a fresh drive, and perform a clean Windows installation. This helps isolate hardware problems. If the system remains unstable after the BIOS update, consider testing your RAM. This process may take a long time but can resolve hardware faults.
use memtest86 or memtest64 as recommended. you can boot with just one RAM stick at a time and verify functionality until the system fails with a specific stick. i prefer memtest86 because memtest64 runs inside windows and may not allow full RAM testing if the system crashes. for faster testing, detach each RAM stick one by one and insert them in the correct slots. consult your manual for more details.
I tested three RAM sticks one at a time and they all caused the system to crash soon after.
It's unusual to encounter a RAM problem, but upgrading to an SSD and installing Windows there might resolve the issue. Check for BSOD during a clean install; if none appear, old installation problems likely exist. Use tools like sfc and dism to fix them. If you keep your data, you can refresh the install without losing software.
The device appears to be running older hardware, possibly a 13th or 14th generation Intel processor that may have worn out. Signs such as memory errors are common in this scenario. Additional details like Windows version, system specs, and usage patterns would help pinpoint the exact cause.
I’d still blame the windows, but honestly, the motherboard and processor are more likely to stop working long before the RAM. At least from my experience, bad RAM is a pretty common hardware problem, while the motherboard tends to fail sooner than the CPU.
I don’t know what to focus on since O.P. hasn’t given enough details to decide a path.
