Windows won't load

[XenoPlaysGames]

So basically I've had multiple problems with this computer that I got from a family friend and basically I've put a new hard drive in it because the old one was gone, and finally I think I got it working semi correctly after multiple things happening with it well I have a USB media recovery stick and I've been trying for a couple days to just load it up.and install it on to my drive and I've actually installed it about 3 times total and it has before booted up and went and gone through windows and such but it eventually just crashes and then windows does boot properly and I've tried multiple different things online and I just ran out of luck and I'm exhausted from this computer having so many problems, where do I go from here?

Here's my previous thread with issues I've had

I am unsure of your technical knowledge so I will be (trying to) using more basic terms. If you do not understand I will help and explain.

The hard drive may have bad sectors and is unable to access some critical data and then crashes. You could try a different hard drive or see if a live Linux distribution running from your USB drive does not crash. If you would like help setting up a bootable Linux thumb drive I would be willing to help.

These crashes may be explained by bad memory or RAM. You could test this with a tool like https://www.memtest.org/

Use Rufus, UnetBootin, or similar software to write the iso in the zip file listed below to a USB drive and booting the USB drive. When prompted press enter to start testing. There should be a blue screen with white text. The testing may take a while depending on how much RAM you have. If there are any red errors on the screen during the testing your ram (or ram slot) is bad. You can try booting with individual sticks of RAM to test them. I would let it go thru two passes before shutting down.

ZIP File:  https://www.memtest.org/download/5.01/memtest86+-5.01.iso.zip

It sounds like this is a prebuilt computer so the make and model number may help.

 

EDIT:

Another thought could be that the SATA port on the motherboard is bad (there should be multiple ports just try a different one) or the SATA cable is bad (try a new SATA cable)

I have Rufus installed on to the usb but how do you exactly use the memtest on the usb, I tried to just put it on the usb but nothing worked.

Can anybody else help me, I tried all ram sticks individually, I tried a new hard drive that I know for sure works 100% and the best thing that I can get is the windows logo and it trying to automatically repair but it fails to repair.
