Hi,

I am getting this error on a new system build. CPU temp is 50 degrees centigrade. Intel mobo with intel duo core e8500. Can someone help me get past this error? It always happens during windows XP installation when installing components.

Thanks

It's either an error with your RAM or in the CPU's cache system, but most likely the RAM.

Are you supplying it with enough voltage? List your specs, clocks, and voltages.
