Good stuff. I actually found a bad stick of ram a few days ago. Even though a system boots, ram can still have errors and be unstable. Always worth checking.
@@computerrefurbishment9748 Yup ... I found an error in a Ballistic 4GB ram stick awhile back ... booted okay and ran, but there were errors higher in the address range!! Rechecked again - same thing again. I bought 8 2GB each DDR2 ram sticks off ebay, and tested each one several passes a few weeks ago - all passed! I was surprised, they were new, shipped from China ...
+1. Been testing RAM in several Dell Optiplex GX series PCs ...
