In the good old days, there was a DOS program called CheckPoint that did a full memory test. It was great - used to test conventional memory as well as extended and LIM 4.0 expanded memory.

Did "walk" tests, strobe tests, etc.

Nowadays, I think "memtest86" is the preferred choice.

I second Tims choice, have used it and find it pretty thorough, but I found it best to leave it running over night as it can take some time. That was using the floppy disk method though, whether the other method is faster I couldn't say.
