bad RAM? prove it with a crash dump?

[Atom Smasher]

i suspect i've got bad RAM but memtest has run through several dozen 
iterations without a problem. my (3 year old) laptop will run for a few 
days or weeks and then crash/freeze/hang. i've enabled crash dumps and i'm 
wondering if/how the dump might be able to (dis)prove that the RAM is bad. 
any ideas?

thanks...
