How to back up computer if your memory modules don't work and have to reset them
I found out that my computer has a problem with its memory module and won't boot up. Is there a way that I could possibly be able to back up my data as it has a lot of important data.

Remove the hard drive and mount it in a 2.5" usb external case - attach to a working system and make a copy of your data to the hard drive in the working system.

Computers usually have multiple memory modules. You can try and boot it up without the faulty module. State your model of laptop so we can advise.

I also don't know which of the modules are faulty or how you could do something like that.

If it has two modules just take them out one at a time (ensuring adequate static protection when you do this) and if it boots you know the one that's been taken out is the duff module.
