  2. MemTest86 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memtest86

    MemTest86 and Memtest86+ are memory test software programs designed to test and stress test an x86 architecture computer's random-access memory (RAM) for errors, by writing test patterns to most memory addresses, reading back the data, and comparing for errors. [6]

  3. Memory tester - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_tester

    Memory diagnostic software programs (e.g., memtest86) are low-cost or free tools used to check for memory failures on a PC. They are usually in the form of a bootable software distribution on a floppy disk or CD-ROM. The diagnostic tools provide memory test patterns which are able to test all system memory in a computer.

  4. TEST (x86 instruction) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TEST_(x86_instruction)

    In the x86 assembly language, the TEST instruction performs a bitwise AND on two operands. The flags SF, ZF, PF are modified while the result of the AND is discarded. The OF and CF flags are set to 0, while AF flag is undefined. There are 9 different opcodes for the TEST instruction depending on the type and size of the operands. It can compare ...

  5. Hardware stress test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_stress_test

    A stress test (sometimes called a torture test) of hardware is a form of deliberately intense and thorough testing used to determine the stability of a given system or entity. It involves testing beyond normal operational capacity , often to a breaking point, in order to observe the results.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine-check_exception

    Cooling problems are usually obvious upon inspection. A failing motherboard or processor can be identified by swapping them with functioning parts. Memory can be checked by booting to a diagnostic tool, like memtest86. Non-essential failing I/O devices and controllers can be identified by unplugging them if possible or disabling the devices to ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Memtest86

    Memtest86+ is Memtest86 with changes. As the URL you offered says: Based on the well-known original memtest86 written by Chris Brady, memtest86+ is a port by some members of the x86-secret team. Our goal is to provide an up-to-date and completly reliable version of this software tool aimed at memory failures detection.

  9. Overclocking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overclocking

    Popular stress tests include Prime95, Superpi, OCCT, AIDA64, Linpack (via the LinX and IntelBurnTest GUIs), SiSoftware Sandra, BOINC, Intel Thermal Analysis Tool and Memtest86. The hope is that any functional-correctness issues with the overclocked component will manifest themselves during these tests, and if no errors are detected during the ...
