[QUOTE="morerice, post: 1634190, member: 341632"] Thanks for the nice replies.Yes, I wish I had joined here earlier. A long time reader and lurker. By the way, the RAM checking app I used is called Rember. It's free. [url=http://www.kelleycomputing.net/rember/]Rember - Kelley Computing[/url] I also used Tech Tool Pro with good success. But Rember is much more comprehensive for RAM tests and offers much better testing parameters. And it's free. Tech Tool Pro is about $100 with a prettier interface, but no where near as robust tools for testing RAM. I strongly suggest when using any sort of RAM testing software to begin with a fresh reboot and only have the RAM testing software open. The reality is only free, unused RAM will be tested. The OS and other open apps utilize a portion of RAM that will not be checked when you run the RAM tests. [/QUOTE]
