Error code 0x80070570

So I am trying to do a clean Windows 10 install. I created a USB iso file with Windows Media creation tool, and I keep getting this error soon after the installation starts. I deleted all partitions. I tried re-loading the iso file to the flash drive several times, same error. I also tried an actual Microsoft boot USB drive. Same thing. I ran a diagnostic test on the HDD, and it showed no problems.

Am I missing something here??

Try running memtesst86 on each of your ram sticks, one stick at a time, up to 8 passes. Only error count you want is 0, any higher could be cause of the BSOD. Remove/replace ram sticks with errors.

1st answer would have been try another USB but you did. That error can be all sorts of things, 1st place to look is at ram, as people have found just removing 1 stick or swapping sticks around can fix it.

Since I already deleted the OS from the HDD, can I test the memory in my other desktop without damaging anything, as long as it's compatible?

memtest creates a bootable USB that you can use without windows. So create it on other PC and test the one with the errors.

I'm 5 minutes into memtest86 and so far it's showing 147 errors. Still only on the first pass. I'm guessing my memory is done for?...

yes, the only score you want is 0. Sounds like you need a new stick. remove it and install should work fine, provided the other sticks test okay.
