I know this won't help the original poster right away, but I'm wondering if what's needed is a memory test that not only spins through the memory but also does DMA transfers back and forth to a disk, and/or other similar functions. It might also be useful to have a second thread exercising the cpu core(s) to "heat things up". These are some of the things different between running memtest86 and running the OS and doing "something".
Good point. Memtest86 didn't find any problems for the 6 or so passes it made when running the 8gig in dual channel. Someone also mentioned memtest86 doesn't run the cpu in 64bit mode. -- Flambeau Inc.
