Memtest is dull, and stops you using your PC, but like Windows virus
scans, it seems like a necessary evil in this case.
I did the standard tests for 24 hours (21 passes) and it didn't fail.
I ran the 90 minute fading one for 24 hours (8 runs) and it too didn't fail.
It's almost a shame when a test like this passes. It's much easier to
just replace some memory and get on with things than be stuck with an
intermittent problem.
Could something be overheating? Are you still getting random
segfaults? Is there *any* pattern you can see?
