Yep, it appears they have made some changes. This is what the site says
now.

I've had mine for a while now, so I wouldn't be surprised if 1.5 was the

you are right. 24h is better.

ok this may have nothing to do with it but was it a 32 bit OS on the
usb stick? does it use all 8 gigs?
dont know if this makes any diffrence though just gues

Before you start tweaking voltages and replacing PSUs you better test your
*new* memory modules thoroughly, even if that means that you will be using
your old machine for a day or so.
Personally I usually remove all memory modules and then test one at a time
overnight with memtest 8

increase ram voltage - a bit. Like 0.01V.

12 hours? By that time, I would be in a rubber room. I would go nuts.
lol I did let it run for almost 5 hours tho. No errors.
O, I hate changing voltages. Al

When you say "memtest" what memtest are you using, exactly? The one

I prefer memtest86+ as it is updated and has support for the latest
CPUs and memory configurations. You can install it from portage and
add an entry to your Grub menu and don't need to mess w

Dale, I have better experience with sys-apps/memtester for catching
memory errors - though running it over night. You can tell it what to
test.
Furthermore I had one machine (an AMD Phenom II) where I got random
errors though all memory tests went through without a problem

Well, I think my machine is possessed or something. I'm getting random
reboots here. When it does this, it is like hitting the reset button.
It is sitting on the grub screen when it does this. I noticed the first
