    I do a complete memory test using the Diagnostic utility on the DELL BIOS with no error result.

      Does it not boot past that? It pretty much has to be a hardware error though.

          Well, it pretty much has to be bad hardware and almost certainly bad RAM.

          You don't need 20GB so I'd try removing some until the error goes away.
