Enter your BIOS (usually by pressing the DEL key VERY quickly when
prompted very early during boot - timing is critical). Find the setting
for memory parity and disable it. Save the BIOS settings and exit. When
the machine reboots, see if that problem has gone away.

The PC manual will tell you how to enter BIOS if the DEL key doesn't do
it. Some vendors use other keys. Don't ask...
