Ugly. Bad memory.

The ctrl-T is the self test for the player. The fact that you got hyperterminal working with it is a good sign. Please try to capture anything you can from a standard boot.

The fact that the ctrl-T showed bad memory is a hardware failure that would require professional servicing. You might want to retry, but it is now very suspicious...
