The previous time you restarted the system was several months ago. I suspect it might be a memory leak or a virus, and a reboot should resolve the issue.

It continues to occur regularly after 4 to 8 hours, even though I recently replaced the RAM.

According to @RONOTHAN##, it could be a virus or a memory leak in a driver. I'd check the system for malware.

I’d likely begin scanning for malware or consider a full system reset. It might be a strange virus, or one of your installed programs could be malfunctioning and difficult to identify.

I've already scanned for malware. To check for memory leaks, use tools like Valgrind or your OS's memory profiler. Fixing leaks involves identifying the source, optimizing data handling, and updating your software to stable versions.

Memory leak refers to a situation where a program or driver consumes increasing amounts of RAM because of a flaw. You can spot it by tracking RAM usage over time in the hope of finding the cause. It cannot be resolved, only reported to developers or waited for a future patch (or remove the problematic software).

You don't. You accept that its a lost cause, likely by system corruption or dodgy application/utility/drive, and wipe it.
