Since you didn't state what type of mobo you have, nor the processor
you're using, this is only a guess.
	But, most more modern mobos don't require parity DRAM, as they error
check in other ways. In the CMOS BIOS there should be a
"parity/non-parity" alternative. If you have at least a 486 mobo, just
turn the "parity" to off and try that. It will definitely eliminate any
"parity" errors. And if you don't get any memory errors, then leave it
there.
	Good luck.
