we have a few DELL 1950 servers. 1 of this servers has CentOS6.3 and its randomly rebooting so I suspected it was hardware. (no log generated) the other 4 servers do not randomly reboot.

We passed memtest86+ on the 5 servers, and on 3 of them memtest86+ crashes (displaying an odd and colorful screen, like if a video card failed)

Although I tested old memtest86 (not +), and all servers did not crash. I also tested other RAM testers utilities, no tool failing.

have any of you guys experience this?

thanks
