Can I check my RAM in NT?

This is a discussion about Can I check my RAM in NT? in the Windows Games category; I know this sounds little dumb. But is there a way I can check if I have a non-parity, non-ECC memory module in Windows NT? I know a few years back there was a website that checked your whole system including the ram to tell you if you had parity or non-parity RAM.

If it 30pin DIP & 72pin SIMM
Most like if you have home build system it will be non-parity, non-parity EDO, non-ECC memory module But if you got a Dell, HP they use parity, parity EDO, ECC, FPM memory module.
168pin DIMM
Ok they are two main type's memory module unbuffered & buffered.
5v EDO or FPM buffered this for MAC or APPLE PC only.
Home build system will use for x86 cpu use 3.3v non-parity unbuffered memory module.
But if you got a Dell, HP they most like use 3.3v ECC or EDO parity buffered memory module.
 
Allso like point out that ECC memory module are only good a server & cost a lot more.
No this can't be done by software.
Let say you got 1 30pin 1meg memory module look on chip it self may say

Sometime you find a stamp on the PCB board it self with white letter "GMM79000NS-70 Search for this"
