[Graphic] Windws memory diagnostic tool to check the reliability of memory

Thanks to Windows 7 Party post
Recall 2MB desktop address to a computer upgrade installation type of memory, when the happy happy! Server memory for a 64MB at that time was quite pretty (originally sooooo much memory). You can imagine at that time value per megabyte! Now no longer be compared, at the same time in today’s large-capacity memory, memory of the quality will improve as the capacity is being expanded for this? We also need to be further explored.

For memory problems or flaws are often themselves do not have a big announcement to indicate that they have problems. If you have this kind of problem occurs, Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008, this new system will notify the user of a class using the relevant tools for detecting memory tested memory. So how do we run this checker manually to achieve the hip in the bud, before issues before failures?

Use the Windows memory diagnostic tool:

We can manually open Memory Diagnostics tool in the Administrator Toolbox, command is as follows:

  1. C:\> mdsched

Copy the code and then see the following interface:

Follow the instructions above, we choose to recommend the default first, save the document needs to be saved and now when we click on Restart now and Check for Problems

All operations are automatic, then the computer will restart and log on to the following interface:

This is an ongoing memory diagnostic interface.

Use F1, we can define which need to be adjusted manually and modify, and test the types of parameters:

This is the quick mode, Basic testing for at least the memory project, testing the fastest!

And this we can use the up and down keys to select the standard interface, this is the default execution mode:

Last detection mode is the ultimate! Detect items most content the most demanding level, your memory if you want to be testing of a complete class type of chicken you can choose this option:

By default, diagnostic tool on your chosen item out 2 (two cycle), but you can manually modify the test cycle times, and range is up to 99 times! Use TAB key to position number type to modify the number of places needed again.

I so wish I could set this up scheduled tasks to regularly test, but it seems that this is not. (Read: I wish there was a way to set this when configuring the scheduled task, but I have yet to fine one.)

Press F10, cycle times for diagnostic tools to start automatic operation until after you set the value, the system will reboot, and the following tips:

In General, based on memory size, and select the levels you will have short, wait for it to go slowly, the system will automatically restart, either failed or is passed!

After the restart, as my computer memory is in the picture without any errors!

Assume that you do not lose patience, do not see the picture above, there is no need to, we can go into the event viewer, to retrieve information about memory checking reports!

In addition, if you have PowerShell installed on your computer, you can perform the following command, like this:

  1. PS C:\> get-eventlog system -after “12/26/2011 12:00PM”
  2. -source Microsoft-Windows-MemoryDiagnostics-Results |
  3. Select EntryType,InstanceID,Message |
  4. format-list

EntryType : Information
InstanceId : 1201
Message : The Windows Memory Diagnostic tested the computer’s memory
and detected no errors

EntryType : Information
InstanceId : 1101
Message : The Windows Memory Diagnostic tested the computer’s memory
and detected no errors

Summary: as Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 memory diagnostic tool, which is a very effective and free memory testing tool, I look forward to many OEM and device manufacturers will make use of this tool for simple and effective test, if you haven’t started, so from now on it!
