Products: Other Information: MemTest Version 6.0 Windows 9x/ ME, XP, 2K, 2K3, Vista, 7, 8, 10 License: Free Zip Size: 15K MemTest is a RAM tester that runs under Windows. It verifies that your computer can reliably store and retrieve data from memory.
New in version 4.0: The MemTest Deluxe bootable CD now supports 32-bit and 64-bit CPUs. New in version 3.8: The Pro version now supports command line control of how. Sep 28, 2017 New in MemTest 6.0: Optimized for computers with >4GB ram. Particularly significant for Deluxe users. If you are testing 8GB or more you need this version.
A correctly functioning computer should be able to do this with 100% accuracy day in and day out. A computer that fails these tests, perhaps because of old hardware, damaged hardware, or poorly configured hardware, will be less stable and crash more often.
Even worse, it will become even less stable over time as corrupted data is written to your hard disk. By running MemTest you can ensure that your computer's RAM correctly functions. It is wise to test this when you buy a new computer, install new RAM, or change the configuration of your machine (for instance, to overclock it). Are you the sort of user who likes to push the performance of your machine to the edge? Relying upon whether your machine will boot after your new BIOS tweaks is a poor way to determine the safety of your new settings. Use Mem Test as a true test of stability. Release notes: 6.0: optimized for computers with 4GB ram.
Particularly significant for Deluxe users. If you are testing 8GB or more you need this version. If testing less than 4GB, 5.x may actually be slightly faster.

Based on extensive empirical research we have updated the percent coverage metric; testing to 100% will catch all errors except for intermittent failures; to detect intermittent problems test to 400%. 5.1: /nice switch, and test starts faster 5.0: 30% faster than 4.x!
Whether you have just bought a new computer or you just want to test the RAM installed on your computer, it is mandatory to know if there is something wrong with this piece of hardware. MemTest can help you in this regard, as this apparently tiny application can assist you in analyzing your RAM.

MemTest comes as a very lightweight package (only 13 Kb!) and runs on every Windows machine out there, which is indeed a great thing since all users needs to test computer memory. The interface is just basic and very, very simple, not to mention that it makes the whole application extremely easy to use since it all comes down to pressing one button. Hitting the Start Testing button will begin the actual RAM test but it also displays a warning that states that the longer you let the test run, the more accurate its results.
For example, it can take up to several hours and although the computer works quite smooth during this period, it is important to know that you must keep the application open in order for the test to complete successfully. You can still stop the test whenever you want and there is nothing wrong if you wish to do it before it reaches 100 percent, but it is always recommended to let it end just to be sure if your RAM is okay or not. All in all, MemTest is probably one of the greatest apps in this software category and although it is incredibly light, it provides an extraordinary feature.
