Memtest issue

KingBrian · 10 Jan 2013 at 14:43

Due to having some problems with my pc for the past few days (pc crashing leaving me on a coloured screen with lines down it), I decided to test my ram with memtest, 3-4 hours into the test i got this (2 different errors)

any ideas?

I'm just using the stock settings/auto in bios for the ram

Yes the coloured screen happens in gaming

I made a thread in gpu forums lastnight, I'm pretty sure its gpu causing the crashes, still would like to understand why memtest is showing all this though...

I downloaded Memtest 86+ and ran it for 8 hours and so far so good... i removed the ram and gave them a clean etc, so problem solved i think.
