This doesn't make a whole lot of sense... That sounds like a memory parity error to me... I was just skimming through the memory board's manual for its parity settings to see if perhaps it was disabled. Or enabled. Doesn't look like there's a jumper for that. :( Perhaps I have the model without parity... I've never seen a board with the ability to disable parity... The "***EXEC PARITY ERROR STOP***" message is when you get a parity error in the memory where the kernel resides. RSX can deal with memory errors in other parts of the memory, by just making that memory unavailable for programs to use. But it cannot do this with the parts that the kernel use, so then it panics instead. First bugcheck is essentially an illegal instruction in kernel mode. (Error code=110 is illegal instruction, while facility=300 means the executive.) Johnny
