Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Content-Length: 1884 Lines: 45 This is the first time I have seen an MCE error, googling the EIP value at the time of the panic does not return any useful results. Does anyone know whether it is the CPU or MEMORY that is bad in this machine? As it shows some problems with BANK4; however, if the CPU is bad, then it is possible to get all sorts of unpredictable results, right?
