I ran memtest in my PC and i got this error:

Test: 4
Pass: 49
Failing Address: 00004e60864- 78.0MB
Good: 7648d229
Bad: 7648d221
Err-bits: 00000008
Count: 1

What is this error all about? And how can I solve this?

Thanks! :)

It means that one of your sticks of Memory is bad (it does not/cannot hold
the information that your computer expects it to).

You need to replace it ASAP as any data held at that memory location will
likely be lost, leading to data corruption.
