Default Re: Vista/Dell Memory Parity Error

The BIOS RAM check doesn't really do a comprehensive test. Get some Linux livecd and select the memory test boot option (aforementioned memtest86). Leave it running for a full test cycle, which should take an hour or two.
Ubuntu install disc can do it. Just remember to not select the install option unless you really want to :P
