Remember my mate with the sick eMac? I had him run through Memtest
and it picked up nothing - however since removing the third party ram
installed on his machine his box seems to be running fine. Side note:
he didn't get a Apple Hardware test desk with his eMac.
This isn't a dig - I was just wondering if people on the list using
memtest have found faulty ram? (thus demonstrating that it works).
Cheers,
Tobes.

I was wondering if anyone knew what sort of tests I could run to
see if all my hardware is alright. I'm getting increasingly
frustrated with a dual 800 G4 and I've run every test and
workaround I know of to fix it, and still the problem persists.
I've run the onboard Disk Utility stuff, repaired permissions (a
lot), run Diskwarrior (including the hardware tests), zapped the
PRAM, used Mac Janitor, Cache Out, Memtest, and Virex.
Did you get a hardware test included on the CD with your Mac?
Probably on the system install CD, it should have 'Hardware test'
written on it somewhere.
There's also the free memtestosx at

Have fun,
