I execute it with xmp on, using bios which is unusual—I recall using this program before and tested it on Windows. It ran for more than four hours without any errors. I’m not sure if it was testing memory or CPUs (maybe the stress caused it?).

Memtest is designed for memory or RAM testing. Avoid running it inside Windows since it loads into memory while operating. This might indicate a software problem if it reports an issue but doesn’t provide a clear solution. Your Asus motherboard’s BIOS should include its own Memtest function, allowing you to run tests without booting any operating system. If no errors appear, proceed further. Consider re-seating components and power cables—RAM, graphics card, or other hardware. Also, reapply thermal paste to your CPU cooler. If temperature spikes are causing the error, inspect the cooler and airflow. What CPU cooler did you install? What case are you using? This helps identify potential cooling problems.
