Don't know any good testers, but swapping memory around can help you locate the bad SIMM/DIMM, which is probably faster than locating a test program and running it (if it works). Done it a few times myself. If you only have one DIMM, like I do in one system, it's worth lowering the timings and see if that helps. Mine are all max'd, but then quality memory should do that. 8-) Anyone know how much memory an install can use up?
