I don't claim to be an expert, but I was getting error messages on my
memory check every time (almost) that I booted up my system.  I couldn't
figure it out but someone suggested I change the number of wait states in
my system BIOS setup.  ever since I did I have had not a single error. 
Hope this helps!

Remember Warren's Laws of Stress Management:
Law #1: don't sweat the small stuff!
Law #2: Realize it's ALL small stuff!
