PC won't boot to windows won't load a CD won't boot up on safe mode?
Check your boot settings in bios. If you have a dell check the back for error lights. Try removing a stick of memory, and then try the other one. Get a free disk called Ultimate boot cd, and run a hard drive test.
How do you check your memory on your PC?
On boot up while POST is going on, the memory will be tested, with progress of test visible on screen. When test has been completed, you'll see something like" 512 MByte ok". This tells you that your system has 512M of RAM. You may have to go into cmos setup and deactivate brand name splash screen and disable quick boot option too see this info. regards, Captain Silicon
What type of computer memory contains a set of instructions that is used to boot up the computer is?
RAM.
What is the part that has motherboard memory etc called?
The BIOS is part of the motherboard memory that is for many cases nonprogrammable and is used to boot up a computer system.
What allows the computer to start?
When a computer is powered on, the CPU loads BIOS into memory, and then, based on the BIOS boot configuration, loads physical sector 1 from that boot device to a specific memory location, and then jumps to that memory location to begin executing the master boot loader code. Drive geometry is determined, and then the master boot record entries determine where each partition's logical boot sector is located on the device. It finds the active partition, reads that partition's boot sector code into memory, and then jumps to that location. Once it does that, it follows the instructions in that boot loader code to switch to Protected Mode, allocate necessary memory, load the operating system into memory, sets up descriptor tables, and then jumps to that location. At that point, the operating system is actually executing...and the rest of the system loads.
What is the main window when you boot up a computer?
The window when you boot up your computer is called the POST, Power On Self Test. It is bascially checking that all of your hardware is connected and has power.
What control GPU memory at boot up?
At boot-up, the system BIOS/UEFI initializes the GPU and allocates memory based on its configuration and the system's resources. The GPU's firmware manages the memory allocation, determining how much VRAM is reserved for graphics tasks. Additionally, the operating system takes over after the boot process, further managing memory allocation based on current demands and applications. This coordination ensures that the GPU has the necessary resources to function effectively during startup and beyond.
What is a boot-up?
It what computer people call "turning the computer on" but it also refers to the operating system loading into memory.

How do you check if RAM is corrupted?
The most thorough way of testing your RAM would be using a boot-up memory test (unless your computer has a built-in RAM test in its BIOS, which can be accessed by pushing F1 or F2 when the computer first turns on). Here's a link to an iso image you can burn to a CD. After burning it, you would boot the computer from the CD. If it doesn't boot from the CD, you might need to change your boot order from the bios. Set the CD drive as the primary boot location and if it still isn't booting from the CD, you may not have burned it correctly. http://www.memtest86.com/download.HTML
