please run memtest again - with both sticks installed - for at least the three passes to check that their timings aren't still causing problems. Sometimes, even bath/batch variation on the same production line can cause matching-problems for the end-user. That's one reason why it's generally better to replace RAM in matched pairs rather than one at a time.
Again, thanks a ton! Here's the Component file as requested ...

I've managed to eliminate the obvious remaining errors, I think...
I've uploaded a file - wdcaa.zip - to my OneDrive at Noel's OneDrive
Please download and save it to your desktop.
Right-click on the file and select Extract All, and save to the default destination (which should be a folder on the desktop)
Create a new System Restore point
Open an Elevated Command Prompt, and run the following commands.
REN C:\Windows\System32\config\COMPONENTS COMPONENTS.OLD1
COPY %userprofile%\desktop\wdcaa\COMPONENTS C:\Windows\System32\config
If you get an error with either command, STOP THERE - do not reboot! - post for instructions.
Assuming both commands go OK, reboot, and run another CheckSUR scan - post the new CheckSUR.log file.
When attempting to rename ... it states that it is in use by another process. Safe mode possibly?
Would it be best to rebuild with a fresh copy of windows at this point? Or, do you believe the issue can be resolved? Thank you again for all the help.
Haven't heard back ... so I'm performing a system recovery. Many thanks for the assistance ... appreciated.
Sorry about that - been too busy in resl life
Good luck with the recovery. Don't forget to backup your data to external storage first!
