After four years of faithful service, my Mylex 386/20 appears to be
ailing a bit.  I've been getting an error message:

Memory parity interrupt at 0F22:018E
 Type (S)hut off NMI, (R)eboot, other keys to continue

1. How serious is this error?
2. Is this more likely on the board or bad memory?
3. Can I determine which chip is bad?
4. For those in Silicon Valley, is there somewhere I can
   take it to get it repaired, or is it even worth it?

Please email responses.  Thanks very much for the help.
