    I've run a couple of different testers and they both come back with the same bad memory address. How do I exclude it in XP?

    I don't know how to answer your question or if what you want to do is even possible. Have you considered replacing the offending RAM module?

    Yeah, I've considered replacing it but don't have the money to do it right now. I know you can exclude memory addresses in DOS and 9x, I was just hoping it was possible in XP. There are a number of very good (and free) memory testers out there and I was just thinking that this would be a good way to solve a lot of problems.

    Try the MAXMEM switch in boot.ini.
