Oldest adult child has been earning a bachelor's degree in computer animation or somesuch

Now that the schoolwork is done, it should be time to apply for jobs

Unfortunately, his laptop broke, and his backup drive is also broken

So now he's buying his sister's gaming laptop to use (but what of the programs he needs? 🤷)

Not a single person in the entire house thought to ask the computer builder to look at it

I asked for the machine, turned it on and got color-coded blinks

No memory installed

I tried a reset, hoping against hope, bit no such luck

I will change slots and see what happens, but I think he will have to buy another stick

Mayhaps one of my older machines has DDR5, but I have doubts
