i just got some new PC3200 DDR RAM to put onto my pc and i get a "System Failed Memory Test" im using a AN7N8x Deluxe M/B and tried testing using Mem test but takes to long to test all the ram... so is there a different way or another memory tester i can use ? , also i had to declock my pc because when i put the ram in the PC wouldnt boot up at all at 182FSB which i overclocked it to with my other ram. if anyone can understand what im on about plz help thx ,Rob.

Try inserting 1 stick at a time, then booting. Does your mobo support that type of Ram?

yea my motherboard supports it cuz i already got 2x512 DDR 400 PC3200 in their already just adding another 512mb and it just said Failed memory test but it still boots up windows so i dunno whats wrong with it :S

Try this

hmm okay thx , but this is very weird... i took out all my rams, put em in one by one and overclocked it now its working :S i dont understand but ill use that tester just incase thank u , maybe one of my dimms on the m/b is broke :S
