windows memtest version good as standalone one?
 

because i am writing a review of gskill pc4800 i want to test it on stability.
is the windows version reliable?
or should i use the bootversion?

tnx;)

i'm still using the boot version!

use the bootable! CDROM ISO or Floppy

use the latest one to change mem timings on the fly, if needed

after memtest passes at a certain speed boot into windows and run a few loops of 3DMark03/05 to test stability, as I've found that memtest stable != windows stable.

run Memtest #5 in loop btw, this will stress the memory and you'll catch errors quickly

ah tnx.
i'll try it.

this is test #5



to get there, if I remember correct is
hit 2 [enter] 2 [enter] 2 [enter] 5 [enter] (might have on too many iterations of 2 ;))

hit c, then 1 [enter] 3 [enter] 5 [enter] 0 [enter]

this is with the 1.5v :)

yep 1/3/5/enter/0

and between 1/3/5 no enters needed:p

i passed test5 on 300mhz memspeed, 2.75V and 2.5-3-3-5 but superpi aint stable

:D

sjust :)

how much passes did you run?

I would say, run at least 100 passes!

:eek: :eek: :eek:

i need 1 month for testing then:grin:
