Topic question and how many passes before closing?
I already did one pass through memtest86 and it had no errors....
Maybe some more passes for the heck of it?
Thanks

v2.01 from
www.memtest.org
If you get no errors in 3 to 5 passes, then move to Windows for testing...it is much more stressful.
Memtest may show no errors, but Windows may still have issues.

How do I move to Windows testing?
And if I get 1 error does that mean the ram is bad or is it common.

The ram could be bad or it could be a setting problem.

If memtest passes....start Windows. Use your PC, play games, surf the net, use your apps.
If it is stable..then ram A-ok
