memory problem??

Norvin Gordon

I have gotten the following message several times and not sure what it
means.

The instruction at “0x0356bdf7” referenced memory at “0x01080016”. The
memory could not be “read”.

Does anyone know of a free memory test to run?

Thanks

It usually means your program has a bug rather than your memory
hardware is defective. Does it happen to only a single application?

It has happened only 4-5 times in the last couple weeks. You bring up a
good point and I will have to pay more attention to what is going on
when I get another error. I did run PC-Doctor and it said everything was
fine so it supports your idea more. Thanks for the response.

I think memtest86 is the original:
