Basado en el Memtest86 original, Memtest86+ es un proyecto actualizado por el editor en jefe del sitio francés x86-secret.com especializado en hardware. Con un mejor soporte a los procesadores y chipsets modernos, memtest86+ continúa la tradición de memtest86 como una de las mejores pruebas de bajo nivel para el subsistema de memoria.


La version mas reciente es la 1.70:


New Features
Add new DMI polling feature
Add Support for Core/Core2 Solo/Duo/Quad CPU
Add Support for AMD K8 with DDR2 Memory
Add Support for Intel CPU with 192/384 KB L2 Cache
Add Support for FB-DIMM based memory (DMI)
Add Detection for ALI CyberAladdin-T (M1644)
Add Detection for Turion 64 X2
Add Support for ATi Radeon xPress 3200
Add Support for Intel i975X
Add Support for Intel Q965/P965
Add Support for Intel Q963/Q965
Bug Fixes
Force detection for AMD K8 with unknown chipsets

For our "engrish" speaking friends ;)

-= History =- The first version of Memtest86+ was released on early 2004, based on memtest86 v3.0 that was not updated since mid-2002. Our main challenge was to provide an up-to-date version of this useful tool, as reliable than the original. Our work started when we got the first AMD64 system. Unfortunatly, the original memtest v3.0 didn't run at all. After looking at the source code, we fixed the bug.After some days, I saw lot of other things like chipsets or CPU that were not correctly detected or not detected at all. As I'm the chief-editor of a french hardware website (www.x86-secret.com (http://www.x86-secret.com/)), I have access to lot of recent hardware and I can test and debug on quite all available motherboards on the market. After adding detection for all current CPUs, I've added detection for all current chipsets (SiS, VIA, nVidia, Intel) and ECC Polling for AMD64, i875P and E7205. Then, I decided to display some useful settings for the most popular chipsets. For exemple, on i865PE/i875P series, memtest86+ will now display FSB & Memory frequency, PAT status, memory timings, ECC status and the number of memory channels. Next version will perhaps contain several enhancements and bug-fixes.
