Welcome

or you can use memtest its the same but it can run in windows

...which isn't very accurate.

 

[iluvgillgill]

what you mean wasnt very accurate?

 

[Evilonigiri]

They would cause errors in the window while it doesn't through the CD. And sometimes the other way around. Stick to the ISO.

 

[iluvgillgill]

so what you say is the best way to stress and test the memory then?

 

[Evilonigiri]

The best way, yes. Besides, the OS is already using up some memory, so there isn't any way to test the ram fully.

 

[iluvgillgill]

dos boot?

 

[Evilonigiri]

DOS boot? Right. You don't have to format it or anything though. Just download the ISO and burn it to a disk, that's all.
