Prime95 Hardware Failure

I ran Prime95 on my system (see sig) overclocked to: 200x11.5 (vCore=1.675v), with memory at 200MHz also, and at timings of 6-3-2-2T.

It resulted with:
"FATAL ERROR: Final result was DC10DD91, expected: B0680C2B.
Hardware failure detected, consult stress.txt file.
Torture test ran 4 hours, 9 minutes - 1 error, 0 warnings."

What could this be? It sounds pretty bad to me. Right now I lowered everything down to stock: 166x12.5 (vCore 1.650v), with mem at 166MHz and timings of 5-3-2-2T and I'm running Prime95 again to see if I have a bad processor or something.

Thanks in advance.

Edit: Also, my max temp was 50C.
 
Prime95 error means your overclock wasn't 100% stable. Depending on the test you ran, could be timings too tight on the mem as well.
 
Is there any difference between a rounding error and a hardware failure?

I also doubt it's the RAM timings because it's only at 200MHz... and the RAM is pc-3200. I would only need to relax the timings if it was overclocked, right?
