:disgust: what blasphemy


anyways, buy a dfi mobo...its built in the bios

Or, google for the "ultimate boot disk". Burn it to cd and use it to boot. It has 2 versions of memtest on it plus a host of other utilities.

Another vote for "look for memtest iso image and burn it to a CD for a bootable version"!

LOL, you work for the Geek Squad, right?

I will take a PC to Best Buy when hell freezes over and not a moment sooner.

yeah, take my cpu to best buy...waste money, and hear them tell me I need to "run this" and "install this" all from ppl who often know less than me...no thanks

Iv got DFI...

 

[DarkKnight69]

Haha, or have them open my case and explain that my p3 (the dothan) should not be running on a socket 478 mobo...that is why it is broken!!

[Linearsoup]
