is it the slots or is it the ram itself?
is it the slots or is it the ram itself?
It could be either, that's why you need to swap them as suggested so you
can determine which one is failing.

So I ran test for about 7 hours before I got this error, will I have to continue this process everytime I switch the slots?
Perhaps, as the goal is to identify whether it is a bad stick of RAM, a faulty motherboard,
or incompatibility between the sticks.
Run for 7 passes.

7 passes? wow! Looking at my other mem test it took me 7.833 hours to run 2.83 passes it would take near 20 hours every time I want to test the RAM
I do believe I found a problem from what I see.
The post #1 log shows a OEM/SLP with a Acer SLIC using a retail motherboard. I don't believe that will work.
I see your dilemma.
The only thing I can suggest is either follow the test or
try one RAM module in and see if your crashes stop.
Probably a silly question, You do have the modules in the correct RAM slots (same colours?)
as it is dual memory? As I see you have 2 x 8GB RAM modules.
I do not use a retail motherboard, well I don't think so not do I own anything Acer in my computer. here is my computer setup if you would like to see it,
