I just recently discovered S&M. I've been mostly using Prime95 or StressPrime to test for stability. It seems like my overclock (X2 3800+ to 2.5ghz w/1.425v) is rock solid and passes all the tests in Prime95, StressPrime or even S&M, except with it comes to the "VGA Heating" feature. It gives me a Windows error message and says that it must close. If I let it run, the VGA heating video box is frozen but the rest of the tests run and pass everything, until it gets to the "Memory Test" module. I always get 1 error in "single". Is this normal? I can memtest all night without any errors. I'm thinking that there's something wrong with this program. At stock settings, I still get the Memory Test error, but the VGA Heating part does work.

...is anyone proficient at using this thing? Any help? I'm using v1.7.3.
