I don't know how many passes 10 is, but I have found some hardware
that won't flake out until it has been running memtest for 20 or 30

OK, just to make sure, I've had memtest86+ running now for nearly 48 hours continuous, with ZERO errors.


I'm wondering if maybe there is something "funny" about the AMD X6 processors? I don't recall ever having had this sort of problem when the machine had only a 2-core CPU...
