Hi

If you have 2 memory sticks, each 4 GB you could try removing them one at a time and seeing if the problem goes away.
If it does buy 2 new ones and replace both them.

I suggest with a pair of 8 GB sticks while your at it, if you don't mind spending a little extra money.

Yeah that is telling you your memory is either faulty or not configured properly

Remove one and run memtest86 for atleast 7 passes. if the first one passes do the same to stick 2 in slot one.
