That program (actually called DIMMFirstAid) does not check out memory in the
sense of checking whether or not it works. It just checks the memory TYPE to
see if it will work after installing the latest firmware upgrade. Apple
released the upgrade set to disable memory if it did not meet certain specs.
DIMMFirstAid can actually reset the memory chip somehow (its speed or
something like that) so that some memory that Apple was disabling gets
enabled again.
But if you want to check out the actual memory functions, use TechTool Pro's
memory test.
