I have a laptop whose mainboard memory is crashed. As in if I memtest86 it I get about 10,000,000 errors :)
The thing is I have a memory card which I can plug it in but it's no use because the main memory is damaged.
Can I do anything? or do I have do buy a new laptop :?: :?:

Send your old laptop to me.

I'm not sure if it's salvageable, but if nothing else I can throw it out my window and jump around naked and get declared legally insane and get a government stipend each month.

Maybe you can underclock the memory, or increase the memory voltage. Or give it a good cleaning and see if keeping it cooler helps at all.
