Having looked at info on the dell site it would seem it's a ram problem. If it was a System board or chipset error you would see a 2   6 error code. I can't see any other way of testing the problem other than having a like system to test the ram on.

Thanks for that, tried to talk them into buying the cheapest stick of ram to try and solve it before I posted but she has a new laptop and doesn’t want to spend any more on this one. Maybe I will have a search and buy a cheap one without telling them

The ram is DDR4 2400hz sodimm

Here's some link sfor a comparatively cheap stick from a reputable sellers, with Amazon it's easier to return it if you don't want it though

Adata Premier Series 4gb Ddr4 2400 Sodimm | Ebuyer.com

You can get it cheaper on the likes of the bay but not so good for returning unwanted product.
