MTMBW: memory allocation timeout error

[Edu V2MC]

Good morning, I ran the test on my memories and received an error warning: MTMBW: memory allocation timeout [BenchDLL v4.6.889.8-x64] please, does anyone know what it means and how to fix it?

Try to restart Windows, and try it again.  It may have come up because of a temporary lack of physical memory that AIDA64 could allocate in order to execute its memory benchmarks.

I get this pop-up window every time after running the “AIDA64 Cache & Memory Benchmark” test. My memory is 32G. I opened task management and found that the memory usage is only about 5G. How can I fix it?

I also have this problem. I have restarted many times, but the problem still cannot be solved.

I have this issue too for the first time, just booted up and even another restart it crashed on the last cache + memory copy test.

Not sure how I can run out of memory when I have 2x48GB modules on W11 x64, 12th gen platform. AIDA64 Extreme version is 7.40.7100 which is the latest as of this post.

Hello, have you solved it?

Wow!  The "are you human" challenge just to post.  The memory allocation error you don't care about.  I am not sure why people use your software.  It is recommended to use for memory overclock, but isn't even stable enough to run on a clean install with no OC.  Reboot and try again, because AIDA is not interested in producing a stable product, or simply not capable.  Run/Pass TM5 anta-extreme for 20 hours, but AIDA has a memory allocation error.  Must need to reboot.

For anyone seeing the error, just close AIDA and reopen it and try again.  The error pops but the info looks legit.  It isn't a hard crash, just a poorly handled piece of software.  It is disconcerting to see the error, but it can be ignored and often goes away just re-running the benchmark.  It seems that AIDA has known for quite a while now, but isn't interested enough to fix it. 

 

The first time I saw it was a recent clean install of Win 11 with no overclock at all, just setting a baseline from a clean system.  AIDA memory allocation error.

The issue is because AIDA64 requires to allocate a huge continuous memory blocks to properly measure memory bandwidth utilizing all available PC resources (mostly all available CPU cores).  In some cases -- for example when the computer has a lot of CPU cores paired up with inadequate amount of physical memory -- Windows simply refuses to allocate the continuous memory blocks AIDA64 would require to test the memory properly.  In that case AIDA64 pops up a message box about memory allocation error.  True, in some cases it is adequate to simply restart AIDA64 to make it work, but in many cases it's best to restart Windows completely.  That would free up resources and Windows could allocate more memory then.

So while my reply ("Try to restart Windows, and try it again") may have seemed like a short one, that is actually the best recommendation when you get the error message.  I could have said "Consider adding more RAM to your PC" too, but that would have been borderline obnoxious, wouldn't it?

i have this same issue with your software . and some . i use a 14700k when using system stability test it now says it is throttling and overheating. but it is not. i also use the OSD . temps are fine . somehow the software got to shit sinds a update . plus setting a power limit is probably seem as cpu throttling . you guys have no respect and the admin is a compleet fucking idiot
