This video will show you how to test the RAM of your PC for errors and proper functionality. I found out I had bad RAM when I received this error installing Windows:
The installation was cancelled.
Any changes that were made to your computer during the installation process will not be saved.
Windows cannot install required files. The file may be corrupt or missing. Make sure all files required for installation are available, and restart the installation. Error code: 0x80070570
In this video I use PassMark Software's MemTest86, which is free software that is downloaded from the internet and then burnt on to a recordable CD-R, creating a bootable CD. Through a process of elimination, this video will allow show you how to pinpoint and identify which of your RAM modules has the error and needs to be replaced.
