I am not even going to ask why, but just suggest memtest 86.
If you get an error you probably need more juice.

Just boost it to 2.2V and run it at 4-4-4-12.
Also, you cannot run memtest in command prompt in windows.

i tired running at 4-4-4-12 at 2.2v

wouldnt work

its hard to run at specified timings when you have 4gb

im sure if i only had 2gb it would work fine

Memtest runs under raw DOS booted from diskette or CD. It comes on the Ultimate Boot Disk for DOS - you can DL the ISO and burn your own copy. Also I don't trust any of the voltages reported by the BIOS or hardware monitor software. Use a DMM (digital multimeter) to adjust them properly.
