I'm trying to figure out this whole Memtest thing, and I'm getting some conflicting info. Specifically with the USB Legacy option in the BIOS. Some say disable it, some say only disable it if you're not using it. (I actually have a USB keyboard but I also have a PS2 one I can use for the test). I've also read to disable serial, parrallel, IDE, SATA, take out all PCI cards but video, etc. But that leads me to a second question. If you're using these other things when you're computer is on and in regular use, shouldn't you keep these things enabled to get the "real world" performance of your memory? Or does enabling / disabling these things only pertain to Memtest freezing, but other than that won't affect as the wheather a stick of RAM passes the various tests without errors?
