To: questions@FreeBSD.org Date: Tue, 28 Mar 95 10:21:18 MESZ Mailer: Elm [revision: 70.85] Sender: questions-owner@FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hi, since FreeBSD 2.0 my machine often crashes with "RAM parity error..." In 1.1.5.1 I never had this problem, nor do I have it with dos. I tried lots of hardware testing utilities (under dos) but none of them could reliable report problems. My questions: Is the "RAM parity error" in FreeBSD 2.0 (2.0-950322-SNAP) reliable? Would it be able to also print the hardware adress of the parity error? Do you know of a real(!) good hardware (memory) testing utility, maybe under dos?
