  • MemTest86 v5.1.0 UEFI Freezing on Test 10

    New Sager NP2670 laptop, Intel 4810mq, 16GB Wintek 1600Mhz DDR3 RAM in 8x2, UEFI boot. No issues in limited normal use so far in Windows 8.1 Pro, or in BurnInTest and other benchmark program memory testing. Temps not hitting more than 65-68*C at full load.

    In MemTest86 5.1.0, freezes on Test 10 at 90% through in All CPU Parallel mode and gives some blue lines on the screen. Trying in Single CPU mode freezes right away. Is it a problem with the memory? Below is the last run of the log:

    Thanks for the log. Because Test 10 reserves all available memory, it may be that other services (eg. drivers) may be starved of available memory for normal operation.

    Can you try the following:

    1) Set the the lower address limit to 0x100000000
    2) Set the upper address limit to 0x41FE00000
    3) Run Test 10

    By setting the address limits, it will leave memory available for other services if needed.

      Thanks for your help. By setting the address limits, was able to complete 4 passes of test 10 without errors. Was also able to complete 4 passes of tests 1-9 without errors with the default address limits.

      Is it reasonable to assume the memory is proven stable, or could the address limits excluded still contain errors? Is there a way to test them?

        Thanks for that. The fact that it went through multiple passes without freezing does indicate that reserving all available memory was causing problems for test 10. We will look into a possible solution for the problem.

        As a workaround, you can first run all tests except test 10 with the default address limits. Then run test 10 in 2 stages, splitting into two memory ranges to prevent allocation of all available memory.

        Eg.
        1) With the address limits 0x0 - 0x100000000
        2)
        With the address limits 0x100000000 - 0x41FE00000

        Edit:
        Please give this build a try by running test 10 with default address limits:

          The debug build with default limits froze with some purple dots/lines on screen at start of the test. I was able to complete test 10 in all address limits using the two stage workaround method, done at separate times, along with tests 1-9 done separately as well, all with no errors in 4 passes. I will assume my memory is thoroughly tested stable if you agree. Thanks for your help.

            Yes, there is no evidence to suggest that there are issues with your RAM.

            FYI, we have compiled another build that should hopefully fix the test 10 freeze issue:
