During initial boot-up.  You'll see a message about the computer checking its 
RAM, and counting up from zero, in KBytes, as it goes through the test 
sequence.  (You can see it now if you re-boot the computer.)  Cold boots only 
-- during a warm boot, most BIOSes usually skip the test sequence for the RAM.
