And now my CD drive no longer works. I really messed up now..

Well.. messed up on that. Anyways, I keep on getting error messages that the Referenced Memory at "Number" could not be read. Or something similar. Sometimes I get them every minute or so and they bring down the current screen I'm on. They also occur almost everytime I close an application. A person I asked said that I may have overheated my RAM. Is that true? What can I do to fix it?

Thanks,

Michael

Please post the exact error message.

RE: "... I may have overheated my RAM... "

To check this theory, make sure your room temperature is under 75 F/23 C.
Remove a cover from your box, point a regular household fan at it, and see if the problem disappears.
