  • Errors - MemTest86 V6.3.0

    Hello, I have just started Memtest86 and already have 687 errors.

    Once it's done is there anyone here who understands what these errors mean and possible fixes?

    I have had a quick look at forum for error meanings - will look in more detail apologies if I missed it.

    I am hoping it's just Ram errors what I can replace.

    Thanks
    Andy

    Edit more details: At top of screen during test it says its Memtest86 v4.3.7 but I downloaded

    MemTest86 V6.3.0 Free Edition (also includes V4 for old machines)
    The laptop is a 2015 model but I dont think that bios has been updated.
    Acer E5-573

    Windows Downloads:




    Last edit: Let it run for 9 hours ended up with over 67k errors just taken out old ram, put new ram in using the other slot and no errors.

    Thanks for making such a useful program

    Good to hear the errors disappeared after replacing faulty RAM.

    In order to run MemTest86 v6, the BIOS must be configured to boot in UEFI mode. See this page for details:
