Episode 112 — Memory-Related Issues — Dumps, Crashes, and RAM Errors
This episode focuses on troubleshooting server memory problems, from application crashes to full system halts. We explain how to interpret memory dumps, identify faulty DIMMs, and use diagnostic tools to confirm suspected issues. The discussion also includes how improper memory configurations, such as mismatched speeds or unsupported sizes, can lead to instability.
We then connect these concepts to both exam and operational contexts, such as resolving a blue screen caused by a defective module or adjusting BIOS settings for new memory compatibility. Troubleshooting steps include reseating DIMMs, replacing failed components, and validating configurations against vendor documentation. Mastering these skills ensures candidates can quickly isolate and correct memory-related problems.
