In your other post you wrote more:
Can you help me. Its really urgent. My laptop keep restarting and i'm also receive a warning to like " the instruction at 0×767b8b12 referend memory 0×767b8b12. The required data was not place into memory because of I/O error status of 0×C0000056. Click on OK to terminate the program." Unfortunately, it's still keel restarting and i'm also received same warning too

This was my answer:
Most likely this is a hardware issue. Repair might be (too) expensive, depending on the cause.
Things you can try yourself:
- Boot from a Linux disc or stick (free to make) to see if that behave normally when using it for a few hours.
- Test your RAM using memtest86 (free) or the built-in Dell diagnostics (check the user manual or Dell support on how to reach them at boot)
- Run all other Dell diagnostics
If all of the above is fine and it still happens in Windows, go back to factory conditions.
