Checking memory reliability using the WINDWS Memory Diagnostics Tool

Using the Windows Memory Diagnostics tool:

We can manually open the Memory Diagnostics tool in this administrator's toolbox with the following commands:

C:> mdsched

Copy the code and see the following interface:

According to the above prompts, we select the recommended default first one, save the now need to save the document and work after we click Restart and Check for Problems

All operations are automatic, and then the computer restarts and logs on to the following interface:

This is the memory diagnostics interface that is in progress.

Using F1 We can manually define some parameters that need to be adjusted and modified as well as test types:

This is fast mode, basic test the least memory items, so the fastest detection speed!

And then this we use the up and down keys to choose to see the standard interface, which is also the default execution mode:

The final detection mode is the ultimate! is also the highest level of detection items, the most demanding content, if you want to do a thorough test of your memory type of roast chicken You can select this item:

By default, the Diagnostics tool performs 2 times (two cycles) on the content of the item you select, but you can manually modify the number of times the test cycle is maximum 99 times! Use the TAB key to navigate to the number of times you want to change the number of cycles you need.

How I wish I could set this up as a scheduled task for regular testing, but it doesn't seem to be possible. (Original: I wish there is a way to set this when configuring the scheduled task, but I have yet to fine one.)

Press the F10 to apply, the diagnostic tool starts fully automatic to run until the number of cycles for you set the value, the system will reboot, and bring the following prompts:

Generally speaking, depending on your memory size and selection level time will be long and short, slowly wait for it to pass, the system will automatically restart, whether it is failure or through!

After restarting the appearance, as shown in My computer memory is not any wrong!

If you wait for impatient, do not see the above screen, do not worry, we can enter the Event Viewer, to retrieve just the time period about the Memory check Information report!

Also, if you have PowerShell installed on your computer, you can perform the following commands like this:

PS c:> get-eventlog system-after "12/26/2011 12:00pm"

-source Microsoft-windows-memorydiagnostics-results |

Summary: As a Memory diagnostics tool under Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008, this is a very effective and free memory detection tool, and I expect a lot of OEMs and device manufacturers to use this tool for simple and effective testing, and if you haven't started, start now. !
