Can someone read my Memtest results please?

Does that mean my RAM is bad? Been getting BSOD a lot lately.

To answer your question... yes.

Any errors in MemTest indicate something is wrong.

What hardware are you running? What timings and voltages?

Have you tried removing and re-seating the DIMMS?

Looks like one of your memory modules (or slots) is "bad". It's ENTIRELY possible to have "perfect" Memtest results. Anything less is abnormal.

I just reseated the RAM, so I'll see what happens. I requested a RMA anyway.

looks like it a Dell socket 775 PC whick would indicate no overclocking and prolly no voltage or timing adjustments in the bios.

run the test on 1 stick at a time to determine what stick if any is bad, also test in different slots i stick at a time.

on a side note some mobo's dont like to have all memory slots populated, its possible that the problem, esp since you cannot adjust the voltage or timings.

I switched the sticks to my other 2 slots, and Memtest still detects errors. Still waiting on that RMA; how long does Corsair usually take to respond?

sorry to bring an old thread back from the dead, but OP, what software are you using to take memory diagnostics? i usually use CPU-Z to recall my memory timings when i can't remember what i set them to (so that i don't have to restart and enter the BIOS to check). unfortunately CPU-Z does not have a real-time voltage readout, and so i'm always wondering how accurately and consistently the voltage applied to my memory by the motherboard coincides with the Vmem value i set in the BIOS.

TIA,
Eric

This is pretty simple.The ram in slot 0 was bad.If you recheck the ram that was in that slot in another slot ,it will show the ram in that slot is bad.RMA required for that stick.

^LOL

...this is an old thread that i just happened to bump b/c i have a somewhat related, but off-topic question. i would imagine the OP has solved his memory problems by now, despite not getting much help here on the forums...

The OP was using Memtest.

Silly me, think you meant the one under the link RAM... Not sure.
