DocMemory for RAM doesn't work
Greetings.
From Simmtester.com, I've downloaded DocMemory Beta V2.2 to test memory locations. On one of two WinME machines here (HP7840 & HP8705), it works in the HP8705 in its entirety. The other only gets within one second of startup up to MATS+ and freezes. So rather than showing me if there is fault with any location, it freezes. Is there some way to get it to work so I can burn-in and test the new RAM? I have tried the test with each set separately with same results. I have selected default settings on BIOS and RAMs are PC100. Without this test working, I'm concerned there is something wrong. I am having an intermittent "failure to detect" type messages when trying to burn with the CDRW drive on the HP7840. (message varies depending on software being used to burn). I hope there's no problem with the motherboard, and if so, would it have anything to do with intermittent burn problems on the CDRW drive? What test(s) are there for motherboards? Thank you! B.rgds, Kevin |

Try a supported and released version of DocMemory instead of a beta version.
