Two banks of Memory (3 and 5) have problems?
If the RAM tests OK, suggest you swap the motherboard
IIRC, you have memory interleaved? I've had problems with that, in the past, on ... an acer? Anyway, if so, try turning it off in the BIOS setup.
Also, make sure you have the latest BIOS for the mainboard.
I'm pretty sure those 'banks' mentioned in that error relate to the on-CPU cache, and not to motherboard main RAM.
any ECC in a MACHINE CHECK is likely CACHE ecc, not main memory ECC.
