Memory parity errors.
Issue
Memory parity errors.
Cause
This issue can be caused by any of the below possibilities:
- Random Occurrence
- Issue with new memory
- Bad power strip or power source
- Bad Memory
- Bad Motherboard
Solution
Random occurrence
Like all electronics, this could just be a random occurrence. If this is occurring frequently, like every other boot, we would recommend trying the below solutions.
Issue with new memory
If you have recently added any new memory to the computer, temporarily remove that memory to verify it is not causing your issue. It is possible for different brands, memory speeds, or memory types to conflict and cause parity errors.
Bad Power Strip or power source
Try a different power outlet or power strip as the computer may not be receiving a good continuity of power.
Bad Memory
Verify that the memory is not bad by either replacing it or contacting the manufacturer for replacement.
Bad Motherboard
The motherboard memory connections or other component on the motherboard may have failed, causing the memory to not be detected.
