MemTest Question

[Jimmy Question]

I've got the 3 1/2 floppy made and booted into MemTest, but I'm not quite sure what I am doing.

 

First, does memtest test the memory at the CPU speed and timings that are in the CMOS ? If so, then why does MemTest allow you to change the timings.

 

What about voltage ? I couldn't find anywhere in MemTest to adjust voltage, so does it use what is set in CMOS ?

 

If there is no connection between the CMOS and MemTest, then how can you change the DDr to see how it overclocks ? Is there a guide on this somewhere ?

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Jimmy

Change all timings and voltages in the Bios. Use Memtest to test those changes. Click on the "Stability Testing Programs" link in my sig.

Last night I ran my G. Skill DDR400 "HX" memory at 3-4-4-8 all night long at DDR550. Not really knowing what I was doing, I set the divider on a 1:1 and then adjusted the CPU/HTT until the DDR was at 550. I left the voltages & everything else alone.

 

Now I don't know what to do next.
