    Is this CPU,or have I just made it seem that way?

    Having weird browser video playback crashes and download corruption issues in Win 11 on the following:

    First test failed with all the failures on CPU 6 and a single block so found a forum post where you describe that this is par for the course with how MemTest works, so I thought I'd rerun on a single core that wasn't 6:

    Then rerun again on just core 6:

    On restarting after test three the machine now fails to boot, so this is all good fun!
    I'm going to leave it until morning and reset the bios, but I could really use some insight on this one...

    Likely it is bad RAM (even though I agree the results on Core 0 are strange).

    See this page to start with
    https://www.memtest86.com/troubleshooting.htm

    To start with, as it is easy to do, remove one stick of RAM (then the other one) and see if it can boot.

      Just for posterity, it turned out to be a faulty cpu.
