"NNI Error, Memory Parity Error, The system has halted"

Every time I resume from hibernation, I get this halt message. I have
already run the memory diagnostic to no avail.

Any ideas? I'm getting ready to contact Dell support about this, but I
thought I would check here first.

ATI mobility x300

Most memory today doesn't do parity checking
so that's probably off the list. That it only
happens from a resume, ... well, the re-seat
is too easy not to do.
 
Well, it is a laptop. I'll try to reinstall the memory, but the rest is
rather hidden. I still have 2 years left on the warantee, so if this doesn't
help, I'll just contact Dell.

Let's just hope it doesn't burst into flames before then :)

I tried the diagnostics and installing different memory. No go. I contacted
Dell, they are sending out a technician in the next couple days to replace
the motherboard. This should be interesting.
