How To Check Your Memory?


If you wondered how to make sure you RAM (Memory) is OK? well, actually there is some ways to check it out. But firstly, if you found your computer sometimes shows "the Blue Screen Of Death (BSoD)" and Errors like PFN_LIST_CORRUPT and PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA and so on including include system stalls, reboots, and weird PC behavior are the signs of bad RAM.

Here is some tools to check your memory, just to make sure will you buy a new memory or not.. :)

Speed Up My PC - (FREE Scan)
Uniblue’s Speed Up My PC repair tool will scan your RAM for errors plus automatically free up memory where it can on top of a slew of other very useful performance tweaks. It’s a free download so it is a great diagnostic tool to try before anything else.

It might be a little difficult or the average user, but it isn’t a bad way to check RAM. It is a useful tool, this app runs tests on your RAM, checking it out for errors.
Once you have the latest version of Memtest86, then make a diagnostic disk make it bootable, then boot from it. The cool thing about it is that it loads before the PC loads Windows drivers and such. Hence, No BSod! As Memtest86 run and diagnoses your PC, any suggestion or fixes it comes with would give a clear idea if you have bad or good RAM.

Not much different with memory86, just go and find out..


Re-Install your Windows :p
It might be a very dificult things to do, but it's so accurated. When you installing your windows, you will see a blue screen with a yellow bar move on as an indicator for copying windows files. If you sure your CD and your CD-ROM is in a good time, then the yellow bar is stopped in the middle of copying process and it says " "cannot copy ......", it's mean your memory has an error in his addresses when copying your windows file.. then, just buy another memory :)
