So, what’s wrong, really…

As you can see I ran memtest86+ yesterday, and it gave me lots of errors. However something wasn’t smelling right, so I thought I’d run the same test on two other macbooks and one PC. The PC was clean, but both the macbooks apparently had exactly the same bugs as mine. So, it seems memtest86+ isn’t really macbook compatible. Memtest86 wouldn’t even boot. It might maybe be better if memtest86+ also wouldn’t boot instead of giving me false errors.

However. There’s something wrong with the machine, it’s slow, it crashes, it has sudden reboots. It even has strange graphical artifacts on the screen and the operating temperature is about 85 degrees celsius.

    So why spend countless hours debugging it when you can get someone else to do it? Isn’t it better to focus on work instead of hardware debugging?
