I switched the DIMMs from dual-channel to single-channel and so far (up
to test 4) I get no errors. Go figure.

As of now, memtests 2,3, and 4 fail (waiting for the rest). The
following bits are listed as "Err-Bits" (00001000,00008000,00002000).
The chipset is Intel i848/i865. I may install the DIMMs into another
machine and memtest them there.

It might be as simple as the bios settings. Which memtest tests gave
errors?
Assuming that you have not upgraded the ram or anything like that, it
is probably the chipset. What type of chipset do you have?

Curious...the system is a Dell Optiplex GX270...RAM system is PC3200
2x512MB DIMMs in a the dual-channel arrangment. If I run memtest
against this setup, I get numerous errors. However, if run memtest
with
only one DIMM installed (either one), I get no reported errors. Would
this still be an issue with the DIMMs or something wrong with the mobo?

PS...pardon me for asking a hardware question on a FreeBSD list :-)

Thanks...I downloaded the iso and memtest confirmed that the system
has memory problems.

I and others on the list suspect faulty RAM. Are there any utils

there that can test/diagnose RAM (aside from the laughable BIOS
