Im using GoldMemory 6.64 under DOS. My system specs:
~~~
AMD Athlon XP 2800+ @ 2.09GHZ
Gigabyte GA-7VT600-PL (Rev 1.0) Chipset: VIA VT8377 Apollo KT600
Award BIOS v6.00PG v F7
768MB DDR Ram (3x 256MB) ** I manually set the BIOS "DRAM Clock" to 166-DDR333.
+ 256MB OCZ Basic OCZ400256P PC3200
+ 256MB OCZ Premiere PC2700 DDR SDRAM
+ 256MB Micron 16VDDT3264AG-265A1 PC2100 (PC2400?)
30GB HDD Maxtor 53073H4
40GB HDD Maxtor 5T040H4
Lite-On DVDRW SOHW-832S
HP CD-Writer+ 8200a
ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 128MB (256Bit) AGP
Soundblaster Live! 5.1

We're using a surge protector and Enermax 365P 350 Watt PSU (1 yr old now). The PC is normally on for long hours, sometimes days straight using P2P apps like Bittorrent or the brilliant eMule. If it isnt downloading then its encoding to DVD and burning to DVDR. The stock AMD CPU fan seems to keep the CPU below 48'C and the motheboard temperature is around 35'C.
GoldMemory is consistently reporting errors for the "thorough" memory test settiong. I've tried modifying the BIOS so that the DRAM Clock is set to AUTO (no overclocking whatsoever) and still errors. I've also tried removing the Micron PC2100 stick (however the 2 OCZ sticks were kept in) and still errors were reported.
Is GoldMemory working correctly? Would it be better to use MemTest86+ default settings for a more accurate report? I've used MemTest86 and it reported nothing wrong but this was 10 months back and a few days ago I tried it again and it reported 1 error after 4.5hrs -- this was with all 3 sticks in and DRAM Clock set to 166-DDR333.
I just downloaded 3DMark05 and was trying the Demo option -- I set it to 1024x768 with no AA. More often then not it just switched my screen to black and sits there. Other times its as if the monitor goes into Power Save mode and never returns. The demo has appeared a few times but the title screen will come up all glitched. Is anyone having the same problems with the Demo? All the other benchmark tests appear to run fine on my system. Could this be system DDR memory related or just a known issue with 3DMark05?
