Vista - Memory Diagnostics Tool(memtest.exe) file missing after Vista SP1

04-17-2008

Hello everybody!
I tried to run the Windows Diagnostics Tool after Vista SP1, but when
windows try to restart and run the diagnostics test, they do not start at
alland they are asking me to insert and the boot from the recovery windows
cd, because they cannot find the memtest.exe file(error:00xc0000225).

Is there any way that I can fix this problem, for example recover or find
the memtest.exe file??

I would appreciate anybody's help. Thank you very much!

Hi Trifon,

I attached a ZIP file with the memtest.exe in it for you from my computer. Extract it to your desktop, then copy it inside it's default location: "C:\Windows\Boot\PCAT"

memtest.zip

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Hi Brink,
Thank you very much. I' ve got vista 32. Is it ok to run?... I'm asking
because I've seen that the forum download is for 64.

Thanks again!

Brinks,
I've managed to download it. When I followed the C\Windows\Boot\PCAT, i
found out that the memetest file is there, but for some reason it does not
run from Win32. That was the message I got whan I tried to run it.

I would appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks alot!

Hi Trifon,

Your copy may be corrupted resulting in the error you are receiving. Copy your file to the desktop for a backup, then replace your file with the download to see if it will work afterwards for you.

Hi Mick,
It was not my intention to waste people's time. I tried to delete the posts
from this forum, but I could not. I thought the GD forum was better. I'm in
need for help, that's all. I'm sorry mate.

Thanks.
