The other day I was helping a friend setup a flash drive to boot from so that MemTest would work from a USB Flash Drive, I noticed a lot of forums recommend SysLinux or something along those lines to set it up, well.. screw that.
If you think your memory is the cause of all of your computer problems, then you need to get it checked out, most of the time computer technicians will use MemTest to actually check out if your memory is the root of all the evil on your desktop, this will help show you without having to go to an expensive technician.. like myself. 
I found the easiest way was just to use HP’s USB Disk Storage Tool, which you can download from BayWolf by clicking on this link right here, then by downloading Windows 98 system files, yes, Windows 98.. by clicking on this link right here.
After that, install the HP tool and run it from Start -> All Programs -> HP, odds are it will show up as a newly installed application, so there shouldn’t be much hassle finding it. Then when that pops up chose the Flash Drive that you wish to format, yeah sadly this will format your flash drive all together, but in the end I think that this will be more helpful to you. Chose Create a DOS startup disk from the Format Options box, and then browse to the directory that you that you extracted the Windows 98 system files to. Click OK, then click Start. It will warn you that everything will be lost, so click Yes and let it do its thing.
That’s it. Your USB flash drive is now bootable, nice and simple, right? Now you will need to get the MemTest application from this link, and put that mt400.exe file (that’s inside the zip) in your flash drive. Odds are it will look like the flash drive is already empty and wont be bootable, don’t worry the files are just hidden system files, they are there
After you put mt400.exe on your flash drive you will need to reboot your system and make sure you load up boot options by pushing F12 or something similar right when the computer starts up, it varies depending on which motherboard you are using so make sure you got it right, it might take a couple reboots to get the timing down but I am sure you can manage if you got this far..
You will then have a DOS prompt, a simple DOS prompt with a blinking bar, type in “mt400.exe” and memtest will start! Run whatever tests you want to make sure your memory is working up to par, after you find out it’s severely damaged, I suggest you head over to NewEgg and get yourself some new memory
Have you had troubles getting MemTest to work on a USB drive? Did this help you? I hope it did because if I had a guide like this in the first place it would’ve saved me a lot of time!
You should remind people that if they want to follow your steps like a tutorial then they should print out your blog post because you’ll have to reboot your computer which makes using webpages difficult!
This is true, printing would help. And stuff like this might be better in a numbered format rather than an essay I would think.
My brother in law would be amazed this blog post. We were not too long ago discussing about this. lol
