When you plug the dc power supply in the left most light comes on (green) and the battery light comes on as a sick yellow color. If you leave it sitting like this for a period of time the battery light turns to green. Now when you push the power button the battery light goes out and the external power light goes to a yellowish color and starts blinking. You have to pull the battery out to reset the machine. The owner said that the unit had a problem turning on a few
times before but after pulling the battery and doing it again it would work.
Now it will not power up at all. Can you run this unit without the battery installed in the unit?

It has nothing to do with the ram, it is the issue of the adapter or battery for toshiba laptop, if the output volatge form the adapter is not steady, the light will get yellow and blink,try it on another toshiba laptop. if it is normal, u should test the toshiba laptop battery by the multimeter, connect the electroprobes wiht the anode and cathode, if the pointer does not fixed in a short time ,the battery is the issue. change it for a new one.
