IMO, bad (incompatible, etc.) RAM is different from BUSTED (burned, fried, etc,) RAM.
(Well at least, that's how I define it)...

Memtest is a downloadable freeware (AFAIK) program that will test whether the RAM has errors in it or any compatibility issues when used with other sticks of RAM installed in the system. No need to take out anything from the system, unless you have other sticks of ram to test.
Memtest is available for both XP, DOS and other OS. I like the DOS version bec. all you have to do is download the cd burn image file (*.iso) from the site and burn it into a CD. It is already bootable and simply have the PC boot from the bootable CD and it will take care of itself. I find this program more thorough than the OS version bec. there are no other programs competing with the use of the RAM. Good also if you are building a system and havent installed an OS yet.
There is also a Windows and other OS versions, which require shutting off all running programs in the background. I dont like this so much bec. I believe it is not that thorough.Last edited by number001; November 5th, 2006 at 04:46 PM.

bumping this thread up...
hello again... thanks for the advice and i was able to have some free time this week to check my pc.
i cleaned every heatsink but still it was unstable. i still get restarts and errors.
i did run memtest yesterday and boy, i got 193++ errors. i shut it down because i was getting sleepy.
so what i did this morning is to identify what ram stick has errors. so i pulled out one stick and tried to reboot. i got a blank screen. i checked the connections, it was ok. i replaced the monitor, and still i get the blank screen. i pulled out the video card and reinserted it, still the blank screen. i left it open to see if linux would load, deng.. the hdd light wasn't blinking at all. i pressed the num lock, caps lock and scroll lock buttons, they weren't lighting up.. it didn't make any error beeping sounds...
i will try later this afternoon kung ano mangyayari, baka sinusumpong lang...
planning to keep it for 15yrs just done 10,000 km already replaced the transfer case fluid w/...
