Yes, there is a chance. Here is the typical list of things I check when there are memory errors occuring:
1) Bad CPU fan 2) Bad CPU (could be because a fan went bad before and there was latent CPU damage, internal CPU cache can also be at fault so you can try disabling it in the BIOS) 3) Bad Cache (you can try slowing down your cache timings and disabling cache to see if the problem goes away) 4) Bad RAM (you can try slowing it down in the BIOS, or try replacement SIMMs if you have them handy) 5) Bad motherboard, swap it out for another.
If none of the above fixes your problem, you need to replace that system with one that works :) > > Tia, JimL > >PS: I don't have an ADAPTEC I use NCR's ... So it isn't that.
Sorry, I thought you had said 2940 in your original email, but I wasn't actually looking at it the first time I responded, so my mistake. However, the same still holds true for the NCR cards :)
