There are a lot of other ways, but it's too lengthy to go into here. But one simple one is to have the CMOS BIOS check ALL DRAM on a cold boot (non-parity checking). Also, ECC checking is not parity. Why do you think that most mobos come now with non-parity DRAM? That's even from the major mfgs. If you want to learn more, do a little research (even on the WEB).
