    Memtest86+ test 8 problems

    My ram is gskill bh-5. Its set at 3.3volt at 240mhz 2225 its completely stable in windows so I dont think its much of a problem but it passes all the tests in memtest except for test 8, it will get between 500-5000 errors. I've tried everything but can someone give me some ideas of what to try to get it to not error.

    My system is: dfi lanparty nf4, 3000+ venice, antec true blue 2.0 480, 1 gig gskill bh5.

    If by completely stable you mean superpi32M, game, prime etc stable then forget memtest. Otherwise start running mentioned tests in that order or any other order if you like

    Memtest is a `false negative´ type program, that mean that if he detect an error that doesn´t mean the ram is unstable.
