There's no need to buy an USB-stick with larger storage capacity! However, older USB sticks may be slower, which mey result in MemTest taking longer to complete! Last edited: Aug 23, 2024

Download Download MemTest86 Free to your desktop and extract this file. Right click imageUSB.exe and select the option "Run as Administrator". Select the USB-stick. Warning! When you perform the following steps it will overwrite all your data on this USB-stick! Then click Write to copy the ISO file "memtest86-usb.iso" to the USB-stick. When you get the message: "You have chosen to write an image to the following USB-drive, click Yes. Then a final warning will appear, click Yes to create the USB-stick with the Memtest ISO file... Boot the system from this stick and run MemTest for the first 4 passes. If no errors have been found after the four passes of the 13 different tests that the free version does, then restart Memtest86 and do another four passes.
