If you mean the "Long" memory test that is part of your BIOS (Basic Input Output System) which is sometimes called "Setup". Usually you have to press a key like Del or Esc while the machine is booting to get into that. Once in there are usually options for the memory test, select the short or quick one. If you are not sure about doing this the Esc key will usually let you can out and do not save anything - ask for more detail. Tell us what machine it is and maybe someone can give you the exact steps, BIOS(s) vary a bit. |

Click Start and at the bottom where it says Start Search type in Regedit. At the top you will see Regedit appear. Right click it and select Run As Administrator. Locate the follow key.. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run When you get to the Run key look in the right hand pane and see if you have "MdSched.exe" listed anywhere and post back. -- All the best, SG Is your computer system ready for Vista? https://winqual.microsoft.com/hcl/ Want to keep up with the latest news from MS? http://news.google.com/nwshp?tab=wn&ned=us&topic=t Just type in Microsoft |
