Can you tell us what the Stop Error code is?

When the BSOD comes up, look for a number that looks something like this:

STOP-errors-2.1-BSoD-Error-Code-WindowsWally.jpg

Try different slots your memory. Do you have two 4 GB sticks? 1 8 GB stick?

You boot into Memtest86, so it's not the same as booting into Windows. I recommend trying different slots and booting. If that doesn't work, then test with Memtest86.

my motherboard only has 2 slots
Take out one of the RAM sticks, see if you get the BSODs. If you do, switch slots. If you still do, switch RAM sticks, if you still do, switch slots again with the second RAM stick. Try every configuration to test if it's the motherboard or the RAM itself.

We haven't determined if its the motherboard or the memory.
