Line 16: === Software testers === Memory diagnostic software programs (e.g., [[Memtest86]]) are low-cost or free tools used to check for memory failures on a PC. They are usually in the form of a bootable software distribution on a [[floppy disk]] or [[CD-ROM]]. The diagnostic tools provide memory test patterns which are able to test all system memory in a computer. Diagnostic software cannot be used when a PC is unable to [[boot-up\|start]] due to memory or [[motherboard]]. While in principle a test program could report its results by sending them to a storage device (e.g., floppy disc) or printer if working, or by sound signals, in practice a working display is required. == Detected faults ==
