I tried to load memtest86 from the CentOS 5.5 Install DVD, and the system immediately rebooted. I eventually loaded memtest86 from an OpenSUSE 11.4 install DVD I had laying around, and that ran OK. I ran memtest86+ starting Friday about 6 pm and stopping Monday morning at 10:45 am. Almost 70 full passes were completed, and no errors were found.
