Memory is bad...

well i ran memtest 86 for about 9 hours and turns out i have bad ram,

although i did overclock it to get it at 1600 mhz bloke should know about this, i guess my next test is to put it back to normal and re test, if it is bad this could explain all the issues i have been having

With your machine and cost of it, you should let a professional look at it to repair if needed and set to default clocking.

i set the speeds back to default and there still errors coming back so i think the ram may be defected from the beginning

that may explain my problems i was posting about in the gaming section of these forums,

Very well could be. See if the ram could be RMAed. Show them the screenshot if you have to.

yea i need to, i think friday im just gonna go buy new ram and then send this 1 back try an get my money back.

here is a screen shot of it only running for 2 hours and w/ an error

You are fortunate that your memory problem can be fixed with a stick of ram...mine would take brain surgery, and that wouldn't guarantee a solution.

No, that's probably fine but to be sure you can check the motherboard manual. It tells you which slots to install to in most cases, such as your 3 sticks.
