Ram does not burn out and slow the machine down. If you lost ram it would appear to have less memory and display less. If you check your memory amount and find it has dropped to 384MB that would indicate you have lost a portion of your memory. Other indications would be system hangs and Blue Screen of Death errors. Remove any start up programs that you can and see if that frees up memory. Start with the last programs you installed and work backwards...
