Hi all, since I've replaced my Athlon XP 1800 with a Athlon XP 3000 (Barton/FSB333), my logs are flooded with these warnings:
MCE: The hardware reports a non fatal, correctable incident occurred on CPU 0. Bank 1: d400400000000152 MCE: The hardware reports a non fatal, correctable incident occurred on CPU 0. Bank 2: d40040000000017a (If it has any importance, my motherboard is a Gigabyte 7VAXP-Ultra. I've tried with another ram chip, but no change at all in behaviour) Apart from that, this system is running flawlessly, so I'm tented to just disable MCE in the kernel. But... I'd like to know if this is a kernel mistake or if I have really some configuration/hardware problem. I could not deduce anything meaningful from the parsemce (version 0.09) utility. Any help or advice would be apreciated...
