Just an update for those interested.

Still no solution but I did update my bios successfully toda= y, hoping that last ditch effort would do the trick.

Ran Norton utilities as well.=C2=A0 Everything online seems = to point to the error being memory related.=C2=A0 I ran the memory check wi= th no problems though.

So still at a loss.
