Memtest on flash disk

Omega Destroyer · Aug 17, 2005

Does anyone know how to put memtest on a flash stick, usb pen drive, usb key, or whatever it is you want to call it?
I tried using the rawrite program that it comes with but it won't write to a flash disk.
Any suggestions?

Oh im curious too. Seeing as that I dont have a Floppy using my USB flash card would be nice.

you could always put it on a cd...

I'm trying to reduce load times, I think a flash disk would be faster because it wouldn't have to spin up.

That's a very odd concern. Memtest spends 99% of its time torturing the memory for information, not loading.

Yeah I know, but if it finds an error within 2 seconds of starting, and you have to go back, tweak a timing and load again, most of the time is spent loading. I often have to reboot every 5 seconds and tweak timings so I figured speeding up boot times would be nice.
Maximum clocks? I haven't figured that out yet, still playing around with timings.
