An alternative to running memtest (which is quite easy to do, I might |
| 2 |
add) would be to remove the original RAM and see if the computer boots |
| 3 |
with the new RAM only. |

Alternatively, you could just run memtest, as it is included with many |
| 6 |
BIOSs now. It doesn't take long to identify problems, if there are any. |

I find that test #5 is the best test for finding problems, however it |
| 8 |
tends to keep you in the dark until it's finished the test. |
