CAnnot get memtest86 working

[mykemyk2006]

I have burned a copy of Memtest86 onto cd but I cant get it to boot from the cd. My mobo is A8N32 and i tried to set the boot sequence but it still just boots to windows. Any help?

Did you create a bootable CD?

Sometimes it asks for a keystroke to boot to CD....you're sure you're catching that?

Don't be afraid to let the program run for many many hours or days. I went through 3 packages of Mushkin RAM with my build before I got some that passed Memtest86+, as well as Prime95. Both tests ran for 48 or more hours before I was satisfied, because the first few packages kept failing. It was very annoying.

I ran memtest and got no errors at 433mhz 3-3-3-8 and 2.8v. I failed prime at 2820mhz after 4 hors of running the test it gave me an error
