So I posted This Thread a couple days ago and here is my follow up.
I ran MemTest86 and got this info.

It means what you think it means. Either the RAM, or the motherboard slot it is in is bad. You can isolate which by testing the sticks one at a time and when you find a good stick use it in the other mobo slots to test them.

RED screen below in the image means BAD RAM!

As stated by the other poster, test each stick individually to see which one is bad. Highly unlikely the DIMM slot is bad though.

Probably showed up rather quickly too... correct?

What was the fix?

Would you care to share it with the other members in case a similar situation occurs?
