Hi:

You have too many characters in the first string of the code you posted.

The failure codes are 4 groups of 6 characters.

You probably have a bad memory chip that needs to be replaced.

Providing the right failure code may identify which one is giving your PC trouble.

Memory Module Failure (no DIMM id)

Since no DIMM ID was provided, you will need to remove each memory chip installed and test them one at a time.

The specs indicate that your PC came with 1 x 8 GB of memory and 1 x 4 GB of memory.

Remove one memory chip at a time and see if the code goes away with one of the chips removed.

If not, remove that chip and install the first one you took out.

After you identify the memory chip that is bad, replace it.

If it is the 4 GB chip that is bad, I recommend you replace it with an 8 GB chip so you have 16 GB of memory running in dual channel mode.

See the service guide at the link below for how to remove and replace the memory.

This would be a compatible 8 GB memory chip for your PC:

How do I know, where the memory card located in CPU?

Here is the link to the motherboard info for your PC.

The memory chips are located in the two long vertical black slots shown on the right side of the illustration.

They are also labeled in the illustration...2 DDR4 DIMM Sockets.

One of the memory chips is no good.

Or if you're so unlucky as to have an out-of-warranty HP laptop with "integrated" (read: soldered)  non-customer-replaceable memory like me, ditch Windows and install Manjaro Linux or your preferred distro. 9 times out of 10, Linux will install and perform very well even when Windows will fall all over itself and/or BSOD because of less-than-perfect memory. 🤦🏼‍♂️
