Did you run the memory diagnostics? Therre might be a specific diagnostic from Acer (check the user manual). If not, download memtest86 (free).
It could be a RAM issue. It could be a motherboard issue. But it was so unlikely that it was a hard disk error, that I don't understand why you started spending money on that.

I need to know if this issue is a Ram issue, I have already replaced hard drive and reformatted and the issue is still present.
The issue I am having is at random points, I could be watching a YouTube video, opening a program, or just browsing the Web, and it happens sometimes once a week or 4 times a day where the computer screen will go completely garbled and distorted and then crash to a blue screen, I will also have random programs fail and restart for no reason. I can include info from blue screen - the heading on the blue screen says MEMORY MANAGEMENT. any info would help me greatly before I waste more money on this laptop
