i have 2 gb of ddr1 ram. 2 are 512mb and 1 is 1gb. the stop error codes are: 0x000000d1 (0x00449c27,0x00000005, 0x00000001, 0xf72ec70e) it also says 'apapi.sys - Address F72ec70e base at F72ea000, DateStamp 4802539d)' i called in a guy he says it might be the RAM but i dont think he is legit/qualified (found him on gumtree ad). i can make a quick video of my problem for you? if you help me ill give £15 (im only 15 lol) thanks for listening
Can you reset all the BIOS settings to default, or maybe auto. I would also try if possible, a single stick of RAM at a time. Also, make sure the RAM is matched if required, mismatched stick occupying a set will create problems.
