My laptop is crashing alot (it's not a methodical procedure, but a random one), since i've double boot, i've checked on windows and it also crashes. I'm having some Machine Check Exception errors on both operating systems, and booom! crash! :-)
I've checked my memory, (not mine's, the laptop's memory :-)) using memtest86+ (www.memtest.org) and i'm always getting 2 errors on test #5, (moving a large block of data). If i remove a SODIMM that i bought a few months ago i never get the 2 errors.
My question is: Since the error is only shown on test #5, can i assume that it is a faulty ram block or not?
Thanks,
Paulo Lopes
