I apologise if this is off the topic somewhat, but I figured I could get some helpful answers here.
I have purchased a new computer and will be getting it delivered on monday.
I was told by a friend to run memtest 86 to see if the 1 gig of 400mhz dual channel DDR I purchased is good and up to speed.
I wanted to know two things. First, how do I do this? And second, what other tests should I run on my system in order to verify that it is up to par with what I ordered? I don't want to get conned. What should I check, what should I look at to make sure I got what I paid for?
(I should note I'm not a computer wiz, so I don't know that much. I will be at the linux insta-party getting linux put on this machine but until then I am stuck with windows XP. So any tests that can't be run under windows will have to wait till then. What can / should I do?)
Thanks in advance for helping me! |
