It is a hardware error of some type.
either defective hardware or a conflict.

Try removing all essential hardware and try running setup again


Other things to try:


Run a RAM test

try setting the bios to defaults

see this

you should run a RAM test
and if any faults are found, the RAM should be replaced

the test should be run for at least several hours...
but may of course be stopped with the first error found

otherwise just go ahead and try different RAM that's known to bo good
