Asus and the like don't make BIOS, they get it from AMI or Phoenix or whatever. It will usually say in POST screens or in the setup itself; failing that, it might be etched on the chip itself.

Could you suggest memory test software that might find in a few hours what POST found in less than two minutes?
If (more likley when) I crack the case, I'll try the above program after reseating.
Sorry, don't have one. But since POST finds it - doesn't it tell you? - crack the case, and start removing memory. Make sure you don't have a static charge, though unless you're somewhere cold, or the a/c's set to cryogenic, you shouldn't have a charge, and just carefully take out DIMMs from the (one?) bank, and rePOST.
