I licked my entire pc. Every single component even the monitor and speakers. Turns out I didn't plug it in. Worth it.

Got it - lick my memory card! As soon as I figure out how to get to it

I get this error alot but when I run Windows memory diagnostic it says my ram is fine

Hi, thank you! I did exactly what you said. I took the 2 ram chips, I tested one at a time. The first was complete good. I removed it and place the second one and started the pc. Immediately the the computer screen turned blue. I knew right away that was the one that was definitely not working. I turned the pc off and replaced it with another. Yeah!!! My pc is working 100%! Thank you!

Thought it was a content cop at first.

This seem way easier than what other channels did. I did the windows memory diagnostic test on all 4 rams but ima do it for every single one individually. Let's see what it says

Thank you windows memory diagnostic is a blessing and I said why not and licked my bad ram stick too and it passed after that😭🙏

When you said lick it i had to check all possible translations to my language in dictionary😂😂 nice video...edit: emojis

You saved me 100 dollars. I was going to give up and take it to some IT guys and wait 4 days for them to just look at it

I bought 32 GBS of Ram (4x8GB). Corsair Dominator RGB. I was getting BSOD errors like you wouldn't believe so I went ahead and tested each one and found that one of the sticks was faulty. I'll try some of your suggestions and see if they work.

hey team, old video i know but still relevent. before i even thought to pull apart my pc i updated the motherboard bios and it fixed the issue entirely. you really need to cover all the bases to reduce as many variables as possble, taking out one stick at a time is a great tip

My 8GB just passed the memory test. Appears to be dust clogged up in my ram slots..thanks for the video..it was indeed very helpful🤞🏽

My issue was ddr5 xmp frequency was too high. It’s rated for 6400 but I went to 6000 and it worked like a charm. I ran the long test and success ! I’m very happy

When I do this, do I turn off the PSU and take out the plug or just leave it and directly take out the ram?

I've got 8 sticks of ram... this is gonna be awhile... but great video, just got yourself a new sub mate!

Dude wow I can’t thank you enough my Corsair ram wasn’t working and I couldn’t find a fix but idk why but I think it was the lick trick and switching the ram placement that worked for me

Well the first thing that happens to me when i start my computer is that blue screen and thats after upgrading my ram

Thank you very much Mike. I got my computer repaired. Again Thank you so very much and i would suggest you to make more videos about this...

Genuinely worked for me. No joke. Bought 3 sticks used RAM from ebay. Got the BSOD on a regular basis. Memtest86 showed no errors at all. Bit of a lick and wipe. 3 days without BSOD now. Obviously don't think saliva is magic. Worked though. Cheers

Hey Mike. I can relate to your ram. I always work better after getting licked. 😂

Holy cow it worked, well I didn't lick it but I used a wet wipe and compressed air, ran the windows memory diagnostic tool and no errors, it reminds me back in the day with snes cartridges if they didn't work properly I would clear the metal stripes, now that goes double for ram. Oh BTW I also sprayed compressed air near the sockets as well.

I was getting these Memory Managements and System Service Exception BSODs for months and ignored them until a few days ago when my PC could not boot into Windows without a crash, and if it did, no icons would show up and if I clicked the desktop or taskbar it would immediately crash every time. My C Drive became corrupted and I could not startup repair, reset my PC or even reinstall windows without error even after formatting the drive. At one point it did a full Windows reinstall on the drive but I could not open the start menu, settings, or the taskbar icons in the bottom right. I installed a new SSD, formatted it, partitioned correctly and it was STILL failing to reinstall windows or even reset. Reseating the RAM did not work. What fixed it was me taking out one of my 2 sticks of RAM, and attempting to reinstall again on the new freshly formatted SSD. Went smooth for the most part but had to do one last PC reset because a Cumulative update refused to install. Except for the C Drive and the small programs I put on there, all of my info on my other drives were saved. With my PC back up and running I ran memtest86 on the RAM stick I took out and it found over 15,000 errors in less then 15 minutes. Ordered a new set of RAM expeditiously. Moral of the story: If you start getting these BSODs consistently, do not ignore them lol. Run a memtest overnight and see how it holds up, also it's nice to have multiple drives instead of one big C Drive just in case the C Drive gets corrupted somehow, or at least get an external hard drive to back everything up to. Hope this helps anyone because for a while I thought my PC was bricked.

My msi gf75 laptop power off after few seconds of using premier pro(or any other graphical software) when i put two rams(32gb each), everything is fine, i checked both rams in each slots (together and single). I think the main problem is eaither voltage or mhz (previous rams were 2666 mhz and new ones are 3200 mhz)

So glad ram and GPU prices actually came down again. Ended up picking up 32gb of ram for my computer for less than the cost of new game. Thought it was a scam at first... but nope... it was the specific ram suggested for my computer by the manufacturer

Tested both RAM sticks. One of them had the hardware message and I decided to lick it clean thinking it would work, however it didn’t. The RAM stick with the hardware error message was still able to open up windows, but I’m not sure if the restarting issues will persist. My questions to you are 1.) Do I BUY another RAM stick to replace the one that had the hardware message from the windows memory test to prevent random restarts, 2.) Will sticking with the good RAM stick alone be enough to run games and not see any random restarts?, or 3.) Is there another way to fix the RAM stick with the error message to run properly again? Looking forward to your reply mate.

My problem is of the same you are talking about. These RAMS cards and PC around 2 years old. It just gave me the stop code: Memory Management and restarted my PC. When I returned I figured out how to run the test and restart. It ran the windows program you showed and 1st test had an error. 2nd ran and then started windows after I go to screen where sign in is at. I then watched your video. I will if you suggest take the cards out since I put them in 8G each for 16G right after buying the PC. No problems until recently then things started going really slow even hours after a cache all time removed. Then days later when my pc usually will run great with 20 windows open. I only had 5 or so then got the blue screen and this is where I am at now. So the next step to clean the RAM cards and maybe this works or maybe one is bad? I know nothing about the bios thing. I never saw any high usage amounts using Task Manager Toping out around 8G with 20 windows and running a online movie. Then things started going slower and slower and then the blue screen. tks for your time.

Thank you very much Mike I got my computer repaired

I just got this problem. Suddenly when using the pc for work it got bsod and it says memory error something. It goes to boot loop with random bsod from kernel error,etc. and the last try, it went to no signal to the display. I almost cry because I did other windows troubleshoot and it didn't work. Then I remember that I have a backup ram that I bought couple months ago and haven't test it out lmao. So I changed it and also I did a cmos reset, and hold the power button for a minute. Then turn on the pc, have signal, can go to the bios, change the ram speed and timing. It works perfectly now. While turning on from the ram change, the windows didn't go through the chkdsk or any windows check. it just like there are no errors in the first place.

Second ram was giving errors , so i just replaced them and now both the rams are working fine on dual channel

I see Mike's passion about what he is doing but licking your PC parts is a dedication on another level. Joke aside, great video. If I have problem with my ram will try it, starting with the licking of course!

I went from 8gb to 32gb on i5 10400f or what not and it would work for a while then crash or crash when casual browsing. Passed all hp stress tests and even downloaded Intel extreme tuner. Finally found out abt the memory hardware test and failed it. Searched a ton of videos over a few days to find this to be the fix. Just passed my test after unplugging the rams and light cleaning although looked spotless and switched the slots with a firm push. Thanks for the help.

thanks a lot, i really needed to give my ram a quick clean :)

haha some seriously old school techniques used here. Old school is still the best school :D Love the Fix to, hope you enjoyed the taste of that grime

Okay just try to lower you RAM's mhz in bios..I was facing these problem for weeks and found out my Ram was on 3200mhz , I lowerd it to 2666mhz and all thanks to almighty, my problem is solved.

Lol great to see old school techniques still in use

when i type Windows memory diagnostic it doesent pop up like its not exsist

I need some help because I recently put in a new motherboard and processor and I have had constant memory management bsods I don't know how to fix it

I tried dusting my ram sticks and now nothing will display upon turning my PC on, its like my monitors cant detect my pc.......do i just have bad ram sticks?

Please how do u do the licking exactly? Do u hold it vertically and lick from top to bottom, or place it like a piano and lick side to side?

Good video Sir. Thanks.

is this this problem (memory managment) only relate to the RAM? I change my HDD to a SSD and the problem came after that, si i dont know if si about the SSD or the RAM. Any help is welcome

I see all video tutorial follow you. Thank for tutorial

I will try that tomorrow. I don't have the blue screen of death, but I have the windows error recovery that keeps loading over and over. I've tried everything. I hope this will do the trick. Thanks...

I have this issue, and after quite a few reboots I can get it to start. I've tried resetting the RAM and that doesn't seem to help. I've also run the diagnosis and came up with nothing

So I have 2 sticks of 32gb memory, and when im in windows after about 3 minutes, no matter which stick is in the system, it tells me my memory is faulty. Is it more likely that both sticks are individually faulty or that the motherboard or an external thing from RAM is the issue?

i have this problem once when i turn on my pc then the pc restarts and keep working normally and i ran memory diagnistic tool and the resault was every piece of ram working normally

While playing some good graphic games, it gets suddenly closed. How to fix it sir?

Bro i have bluescreens "memory_management" but all diagnostics say the RAM re good, memtest86 same. But when i start play or doing something heavier, instant i got a bluescreen. PLS HELP (sory for my english)

On mine it was still using the xmp profile for the original ram which had different frequency/timings even though the correct frequency was being displayed in the dropdown in the bios. So just change it to non xmp profile then save changes then change it back to the new rams xmp profile.

I upgraded from 16 to 64, no BSOD's since. Been at least 2 years

I got the blue screen a now mi window don’t load it simply send me to the bios directly I was trying to download it again but it only appears 250Mb of the 1T my 2.0 apdata haves

Hi i have been getting the Memory management blue screen alot lately, i mostly get it when i browse google or Firefox i updated my drivers but im still having the problem, can replacing the ram with a new pair solve the issue?

When I run my ram 3600 mix kit pass 3200mhz I get ram error would boot up but it get alot of bule screen and freeze up and window error but ram kit work fine at 3200 mhz

I ran all the RAM tests, it says my RAM is fine. I also FULLY Reset my PC through windows (the one that takes hours) I also wiped my HDD and I am still getting the memory managment error. Please help...

This works for me. Thanks

Uhhh so I just Bought a Pre Built from NZXT the minute I boot it up about 20 minutes in I get the BSOD than I have the Problem at 4:00 so this means it's the RAM sticks are damaged and after I test which one is damaged I need new ones???

Hello thank you for your amazing video, Well I bought a new hp pavilion gaming 15 and after a week of usage Ive been getting blue screens and I ran Memtest86 and it shows errors, does that mean that I have to change my ram or it might just be because of dirt or ram is not well inserted in the motherboard ?

I have a question. When I set 1 ram to my mobo, my pc is going fine. But when I set 2 ram in A1 and B1 slots, they got a problem when I checked in windows memory diagnostic, and sometimes I've got BSOD. I just checked 1 by 1 of these rams, they are ok when I checked in windows memory diagnostic. What's going on here? Btw my mobo is Asrock B450 Steel Legend

VIDEO GAME CLIENTS like steam epic and ARC will cause this if your running multi screen with different browsers open you will know because the audio will sound robotic before the crash also audio drivers outdated will also cause this running two game clients will almost everytime cause this websites with outdated flash files no longher suported by abobe will also cause this

Hey can anyone tell me if ram damage cause game crashes???!!!

My 8gb ram is detected by my laptop in bios but my laptop still bsod in startup. I tried to switch slots still detects the 8gb in bios then bsod still. Any ideas why bsod persist?

Guyz there is a tip for you .. if your windows crash like this even if ur ram's fine ... check the compability of your ram with your processor .. this was happening with my ryzen 3600 i installed ripjaws 2400mhz whose memory timings were cl-15 .. while ryzen 3600 support cl-16 or later .. u should change your memory timings or buy compatible rams

My pc wont post after the BSOD. I cant go into bios or do anything. What do i do?

As soon as the diagnostic test started it already says “Hardware problems were detected”. I think I need new ram lol. What sucks I just thought it was corrupted drivers or something all these months. Maybe it isn’t the ram still, currently as typing this I’m still doing the diagnostic. I’ll edit if it really found issues or not. It could be the ram slots. Edit: CompletionType Fail, Bad pages 8, excluding the untested 1820. I guess this is bad? I was greeted with a warning saying “Your computer has a memory problem” after I logged in after the test. There are two errors from Memory diagnostic, first one giving the results I listed and the second one just saying “fail”.

Hi, I bought my pc and put it together about a week ago, has been running fine, but it just started getting a bit laggy yesterday and when I started it up this morning I’m getting memory management error codes

Hi! I have a Razer Blade 15" Inch (2018) and I experience alot of the Memory Management Error. I think it is probably the ram even though the laptop is only almost a year in a half old... The ram is 16 gbs but I will probably upgrade it to 32 GBs of ram.

Plot twist: He actually gets a computer virus from licking the ram

I just built a new pc I get blue screens, it says I have a memory problem and websites and games crash, I have 16 gb 3600mhz ram and I just got it, is my ram faulty or I put it in wrong cause my bios says 16 gb ram

I have 2 sticks and both individually are giving errors. How likely is it both would go bad at the same time?

I bought my pc a month ago and i ran the test and it says Hardware problems were detected. To identify and repair these problems you will need to contact with the computer manufacturer. I don’t have experience about pc or pc problems idk even how to open the case any help ? Sorry for my bad English

So even if my ram sticks are running fine I'm still getting this error unless I remove them and see whats going on?

thanks man , fixed my problem🎉

I’ve done this and cleaned the slots but I don’t get a single to my monitor

Sir i having 2 problems 1.memory management 2.kernal security issue(what do with it?)

I'm getting a page fault in non paged area and memory management bsod can anyone help me?

My pc crashed mid memory diagnostic, i have no idea what to anymore, i tried everything you said but it still hase bsod.

How to lick the ram, literally ? Coz i donthave achoice i needto work.

If formatted ,it will be okay,?

Sir mike i have 2x4gb of ram. When i put on my mobo. I always encounter the BSOD. But when i put 1 stick of 4gb ram. Its fine. What is the cause of my BSOD when i put 2x of 4gb ram? My mobo is emaxx mcp61d3 icafe v2 0 its supoorted of 8gb of ram. The mhz is 1333 same on my 2x 4gb ram.

The same advice can be used for NES carts.

It's says hardware problems were detected what to do now???

I get memory management issues after setting it to profile one at 3200. Does anyone know a way to figure out if it it my memory being unstable or even my MB being wacky. Keep in mind I never get Bsods while using the system. Only get them when I start it up. Setting the ram to default speed fixes the issue but I want to know what can be done to fix and OC my ram.

you mention the cas (CL) speed and show the sticker but I can't quite decipher where on the sticker I am supposed to see that

I made test with memtest when xmp enabled and got errors, then i turned xmp off and no errors found i also checked ram stick one by one with xmp off and again no errors found. Ghen i turned xmp on and checked ram stick one by one again. One ram passes test well and other one showe errors. Is there anything i can do other than buying new ram?

reminds me of how we used to fix the NES cartridges in order to play

I get the blue screen and the memory management error while playing games.

Hi when I was trying to install graphics card software on my laptop . Its went off and blue screen coming. I checked on windows diagnostic. But I cannot find any problem on my ram.How to fix this. Please help

I got a new ram for my laptop when i insert the ram the computer starts flickerying and going crazy i think they sent me a faulty stick.

Can Hardware Error about HDD?

Hi my pc crashed suddenly and the memory management error came and it turned off. It is not turning on now nothing in the display. The CPU and cabinet fans are turning on for a few seconds and turns off and it is repeating like that . Please help me

I have a question for professionals to explain the following situation. Well, every startup of the computer ends with two or three BlueScreen. The cause is the memory. However, the next startup no longer causes BS and the memories behave well. The computer works even several hours without any problems. This is obviously an anomaly that I would very much like to explain, why the first, second, third startup causes BS and then it is OK. And this happens every day, i.e. the computer is turned off on a particular day because it is bedtime and turned on the next day. And again BS, and then OK. And the next day the cycle starts over again, BS, and then OK. XMP in BIOS is set to OK. I tried lowering the DDR4 frequency, but it doesn't help. What is the cause of this? Curious if anyone has encountered this behavior and knows the answer? My DDR4 is: Corsair CMK8GX4M1A2400C14 (2x8GB).​

Followed everything in this video and narrowed down the issue to just 1 ram stick (i have 2x8gb 3200 g skill trident neo). Ran the diagnostic tool and still getting hardware problems message, does this mean I should change my ram sticks now?

After a week of testing, licking my freaking ram was the solution........ lol. Well it worked! Thanks for the vid!!!!!

I have this error on may lenovo ideapad laptop. Will the process be the same?

omg, i cant believe it, licking suggestion is the real solution

Hey man I just updated to the latest Windows 10 update and I keep getting Memory Management BSOD. My computer was working fine before the update. Any idea what I need to do to fix this? Should I update the Motherboard Bios?

Hi I did the memory diagnostic, but it said I “hardware problems were detected. To identify and repair these problems you will need to contact the computer manufacturer.” What should I do pls help

I'm having the memory management issue I have 2x 8GB sticks same make and model my BIOS and PC Spec show both modules installed however when I run a game or application that uses more than 8GB my PC blue screens, done the memory diagnostics on the individual ram sticks and on their own they are both working fine it's when they are together that the memory error happens and yes they are channelled, would that be an issue with my motherboard? Because they were working fine for a year and then one day it just started acting up and doing the crashing, and I don't want to waste money on replacing components that might not be the cause.

Every time I try and update my drivers it blue screens
