What tool are you using and what hareware is it checking....your motherboards RAM, video RAM, etc... What are your hardware specs anyway? What type of RAM is it you are using?

The following is from the Tuff-Test Pro manual:

"The Main Memory error code format is MTt-BbxxP (in Certification and Diagnostic Abbreviated and Extended Tests) or MTt-BbaaaaxxP (in Error Logging), where:

M = Main Memory

This looks to be chip failures on your RAM module.
