My rig was five years old and two of my four DIMMs were reporting something like 10,000 errors in the first three minutes of testing. Removing the defective ones and leaving the other two resulted in a dramatic improvement. That should at least buy you time.
OK. I ran the test twice and both times the software said "Test aborted due to too many errors". Same as you I had 10,000+ errors.

So it sounds like the memory sticks are toast. Is it as simple as removing old ones and popping in new ones?
