test new RAM

[Guest]

I added new RAM to my P4/Windows XP PC. Is there a way
to test that RAM to see if it is working well?

Thanks

Hi,

If you want to check the memory, there are free programs here:

One of the most stringent tests is Windows itself. If it's not
working well, you'll have all kinds of problems that Windows will
constantly tell you about.

There are RAM testing programs available, but they are more
valuable for determining whether problems you are experiencing
are caused by RAM.

Crucial is a great company, but do they offer a memory testing utility?

No! But, in reality a really GOOD one does not exist. One that has the
capability to detect intermittent problems. A solid problem can be found with
almost any memory test program.
