A failing memtest is a strong indication that something is wrong with your memory. At least one of your memory sticks seems to be faulty. If you have multiple RAM sticks in your system, you could try removing one and rerun the memtest and see if it passes. If it does pass, then the stick that you removed must have been the faulty one. You could then either proceed to run your system without the faulty RAM stick and just deal with the fact that you have less memory, or you could buy a new memory stick as a replacement.
ineresting -- thought youed like to know -- started removing memory cards and re-running memtester and found them all working -- changed slots etc and still good -- maybe dust/seating/corrosion issues that got worked out by sliding them out and re-inserting them -- also ran some SMART tests as per your other suggestion and got all good results -- anyway -- reindexing chainstate now and i will find out within the next few days i guess if everything is in order again -- wish me luck

Huh, that's interesting. Let's hope it really was just some dust, corrosion or improper seating. Good to hear that it works now! Hope it stays that way, I wish you luck!
