App to fill RAM

[Burnsy2023]

I want to check that a machine can fill all of it's RAM from within Windows without bluescreening. Anyone know of an app that will leak memory for Windows 7?

Other than Firefox...

Does it need to be within Windows? Memtest is the king when it comes to detecting memory errors?

Yes it does.

If you run Testlimit with the -d switch, it will allocate private committed virtual memory as well as touch it. In other words, demanding physical memory from the system.

c:\testlimit64 -d 1024 -c 1

Where 1024 is obviously the amount of memory you would like testlimit64 to allocate. If you want to stop it, just press ctrl + c. Hopefully that's what you're after.

Im fairly sure a Prime95 stress test could do that for you, i may be mistaken though.

About a year ago i had a rig that was spontaneously bsoding for no good reason. Using prime95 it turned out to be some faulty memory that passed memtest absolutely fine, but bsoded as soon as windows filled up the RAM and started paging data.

Second Testlimit set to the majority of your RAM. Then leak with firefox + a ram intensive greasemonkey script.
