    WTF? Before I had 1056 MB of RAM in my computer, now its showing I have 728 MB??

    I had 1056 MB of RAM memory in one of my computers, but the past few days its been running some of my applications considerably slower, so I was checking some things and looked at my specs and now its showing I only have 728 MB of RAM??

    I opened up the computer, checked to see maybe the ram had come out of the slots, it had not, I restarted a few times, its still showing 728 MB. Did the RAM die?? What the hell happened to it?

          sounds like a stick died. Start removing a stick at a time until you find out which one being removed doesn't affect the counted ram. IE: when one is removed and ram stays at 728 you know it's the bad one you just removed

                  Hmm, that sucks.
                  Do you have a guarantee?
