MemTest86 errors

Question

Hello, I've finally decided to write in this website because I've become quite desperate. A couple of months ago I started having some BSOD's with the stop code "Memory_Management" and "IRQL_not_less_or_equal" etc.. At first, I dismissed it as random crashes, but they began to be a bit more frequent. I also tried to download antivirus softwares to see if a virus interrupts my laptop into thinking that it has problems leading to bsod but it still didn't do the fix. I also tried an older driver versions of my gpu but still didn't fix it. So I'm literally on a grind on finding ways to fix my laptop because its not like this back then. I watched a video on yt and followed it cuz he did a test using Memtest86 and i found some error on the 3rd pass but no error on the 1st and 2nd. It's still not done yet but i want to post it now so i dont have to wait tha tmuch longer for an answer. I am in shocked that theres 319 errors (u can see in the picture) currently and i dont know what could my laptop's problems be. Please help.

Answer 1

I am still having blue screens and as you stated it's becuase of my RAM which I need to replace. But I am asking if what could be the reason why and how my RAM gets my laptop to blue screen. It is not like this a few months ago.

Answer 2

You indicated you were previously experiencing blue screens on your laptop, has that now stopped?

Answer 3

What could be the reason I am having this problem? I mean my laptop works just fine a few months ago and I can use it without having problems.

Answer 4

Hi, I am Dave, I will help you with this.

Your data indicates your RAM is the source of your system crashes, and your RAM will need to be replaced, it is a hardware fault, not a software issue.

Answer 5

so the test is done and heres the summary:
