Error running Prime 95

I tried running Prime95 on the torture test and it gve me a FATAL ERROR. It says there was a Hardware Failure detected, and Torture Test ran 0 minutes - 1 errors, 0 warnings.

Doesn't tell me what the heck the actual problem is though, heh. What does it mean?

All my voltages look fine, except for maybe DRAM, which flies around 2.56V, not sure if that's normal or not.
 
If your voltages are fine, I would try running memtest86 on your ram. I believe prime95 mainly tests power, the CPU, and ram. I know alot of people ask about voltage rails or something, so you might find out if your rails in the bios are what they should be. If your memory and power checks out okay, then check again on your CPU voltage. If its overclocked, return it to stock specs and run prime again. If you get errors still, you may have a bad CPU
