For exemple, on i865PE/i875P series, memtest86+ will now display FSB & Memory frequency, PAT status, memory timings, ECC status and the number of memory channels. Then, I decided to display some useful settings for the most popular chipsets. After adding detection for all current CPUs, I've added detection for all current chipsets (SiS, VIA, nVidia, Intel) and ECC Polling for AMD64, i875P and E7205. I have access to lot of recent hardware and I can test and debug on quite all available motherboards on the market. After looking at the source code, we fixed the bug.Īfter some days, I saw lot of other things like chipsets or CPU that were not correctly detected or not detected at all. Unfortunatly, the original memtest v3.0 didn't run at all. Our work started when we got the first AMD64 system. Our main challenge was to provide an up-to-date version of this useful tool, as reliable than the original. The first version of Memtest86+ was released on early 2004, based on memtest86 v3.0 that was not updated since mid-2002. The download links for the V4 downloads are still provided for those that prefer to work with the V4 bootable images.Memtest86+ is a tool aimed at memory failures detection. In order to run MemTest86, PCs with legacy BIOS platform must use the older V4 release of MemTest86. However, you must use either Windows, Linux or Mac to create a bootable USB drive.įor information on creating a boot disk in Linux/Mac, visit the Technical Information pageĪs MemTest86 V10.5 supports only the newer UEFI platform, older PCs without UEFI support would be unable to boot MemTest86.

The version of Windows, Linux, or Mac being used is irrelevant for execution. MemTest86 is a stand-alone program that does not require or use any operating system for execution.Installation and usage instructions are available on the Technical Information page.

Please download the older V4 BIOS release of MemTest86 instead. On machines that don't support UEFI, MemTest86 will not boot. IMPORTANT: MemTest86 V10.5 images support only UEFI boot.

* Once the purchase has been completed, a download link shall be provided that will contain the files needed to create your own bootable media.Ī pre-installed MemTest86 Pro USB Drive is available on our Pricing PageĪ site license is also available, for unlimited use of the software in a company, on our Pricing Page Documentation MemTest86 User Guide
