this question  2 Answers 2  I would run a memory tester
http://www.memtest.org/   share|improve this answer  The STOP
0x8E error means that your RAM is bad/misconfigured. (here is an
article on that error) And also, since you're getting an error
saying that memory cannot be written, that makes me think that
it is the former. Since you can get into safe mode, I would do a
RAM test (such as http://www.memtest.org/) see if your RAM is
faulty, and if it is, well, RAM is cheap ;)  share|improve this
answer Since Safe Mode would use less RAM, is this why I'm able
to get into Safe Mode still? Or would that mean the RAM is fine.
