mem test help

Go to solution Solved by thekeemo,

Its safe to assume the memory is toast..

Guys I need your help, so my friend asked me to troubleshoot his netbook because upon startup a BSOD appears, so i tried to see if it can be repaired using windows' automatic repair and as expected it fixed nothing, and every startup option safemode etc. is no use it still generates BSODs, then i tried to use my win 7  bootable usb stick and heck i can't even go to the installation menu every attempt generates different errors, so i assumed it was the ram and then i ran memtest86+ and halfway through the test i noticed that the errors are too many, so my question is, am i right to assume that the ram is the culprit or i just misinterpreted the memtest logs? i attached a photo as a reference of what i meant... thanks in advance LTT community, and greetings from the Philippines  :D  :D  :D

Try swapping memory slots, if possible. 

 

Also, try some different memory if possible. 

 

 

But no, generally this just means your memory or socket, is bad.
