    I currently have xp pro 32 bit and 4 gigs of RAM....just found in a box an additional 4 gigs...I know xp 32 bit cannot see past 3.5 gig of RAM, but is there a memory test program that can "see" the other 4 gigs when I plug the sticks in? Just want to test...

    I think it'll run forever if you let it. I burn in my memory for 12 hours minimum before going ahead with the installation.

    Here's another vote for Memtest 86+ - been using it for years. Amazing little utility.
