I am going to answer my own Q: After I did some reading, downloaded MemTest-86 as an ISO file which I burn on dvd. Test came out OK. Btw, the WinRar was interfering with the PowerIso and had no choice but to uninstall WinRar.
Hi,
I followed all the instruction but, can't seem to get the Memory Diagnostics Tool to work. All I get is a blank black screen. It's weird b/c on my wife's PC ( windows 7 also) the tool is working just fine. If anyone knows how to fix this please let me know.
Sorry, I was wrong. The windows 7 memory diag tool is not working. I did not figure it out and still need advice.
Cosu,
You might see if running a sfc /scannow command may help and allow the Memory Diagnostics Tool to run properly afterwards.
OK. I'll do it now. Btw, I have memtest-86 on cd and it works just fine.
Did the scan and nothing changed . This is weird..........the other windows 7 pc is working fine.

I'm not sure what may be the cause of it not running properly, but as long as you are not having any other issues and still getting a clean bill of heath with Memtest86+, then I wouldn't worry about it and wait until you may need a clean install to fix it. :)
