If you can get into the bios it may be possible to turn off parity checks. Odd to see them these days.. last time I saw something like that was back in p2 days.

If it has 2 sets of ram try pulling just one.. then the other.. usually only one stick has gone mad, or like I said it could be a bios reset related to the bsod
