IIRC there are two flavors of MemTest86, one with a Plus (+) at the end that
was newer?

When I was testing issues with VPU recover on my new system as was being told to
blame my RAM I tried both and think MemTest86+ was the one that ran correctly for me.

Memtest86 v2 is on a lot of the Linux and UltimateWindows Boot CDs.
I use it on all new memory.
Today I tested very similar memory to stuff I just tested successfully.
It is failing.
It is all new quality DDR 3200 400/333 1g stuff.
These last two were a little cheaper. (Kingston Value RAM)
I noticed Memtest86 is up to ver 3.4a
Should that make any difference?
Here is a screen shot of the results.

I did not reseat the RAM, as I never had to before...
Any opinions? Re-seat it, RMA it?
