Memory testing.

Is there a good util avaiable for testing RAM? Mine passes the bootup tests, but I have a feeling it could be still broken. Is there a further test I can do?

Thanks.
 
Just to confirm, if I am getting errors does that mean i should definatly send the ram back to where I bought it from?
 
If memtest86 gives you errors 9 times out of 10 the memory is bad, it's possible something else is wrong (dirty connector, motherboard or cpu problem, etc) but not likely.
 
Well I ran half'ish of the test (someone needed the computer so i had to stop) and it came up with 2 errors in pass 4, test 5. thats it. Could those two be causeing many BSOD's?
 
If any errors came up I would return it whether it was causing problems or not, although I doubt I would run memtest unless I had problems =)
