Vista - LRAND memory error

Hi

I am running Vista Ultimate, I ran the memory test in the start-up menu and
errors were found, so I downloaded Windows Memory Diagnostic and ran it.
LRAND errors were found, what are LRAND errors and is it a big deal?
I am not having any problems with the PC, no crashes or BSOD's YET.

thanks

Daniel

Hi,

LRAND errors, or random from list, are not going to get better. The module
or modules need to be replaced before you begin getting those very crashes
and BSOD's that you are not getting yet.
