re: Here are links to FREE programs for extensive RAM testing! Monday, January 26, 2004 at 1:07 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Hil Peers (4 messages posted) Would appreciate help on use of memtest-86 version 3.0. I have made the required bootable diskette but as soon as I boot up the system memtest-86 starts the test in default mode (tests 1>7) without allowing configuration. I am trying to run the extended tests but whatever I configure, the program starts on the default tests.
