Not necessarily, Memtest could fail. If the installed Memtest should show errors, I still would use an original Memtest live media and run it again, even if it's the same version of Memtest. If it also should fail, I would unplug the RAM bars and then mount them again and repeat Memtest from the live media. If it still would fail, I would test one RAM bar after another mounted to the computer only. However, if the RAM should pass the tests it not necessarily is ok or if it should fail the tests it not necessarily is broken. That the computer does freeze or what ever "hangs" should be for, could be caused by different culprits. More often a disk fails, than RAM. Taking a look at the disks with smartctl could be helpful, but also isn't without failure. Does only the browser cause issues? If so, are there any error messages, e.g. in ~/.xsession-errors* Does Ctrl+Alt+F-keys work? E.g. Ctrl+Alt+F2 then e.g. run killall name_of_the_browser e.g. killall firefox You could go back with Ctrl+Alt+F7 and then open a terminal and run the browser from command line, to probably get clear output. E.g. run firefox --safe-mode and after that run firefox perhaps running it with a new profile does help firefox --ProfileManager If you should use another browser, take a look at name_of_the_browser --hel Regards, Ralf -- Lubuntu-users mailing list Lubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/lubuntu-users
