I ran across the same problem some time ago. At that time the kernel
was updated to recognize a new chip set (the one I use). The errors
appeared with the new kernel, but of course they were there
(undetected) before. I was checking CPU, memory and finally main board
and it turned out that my TYAN board was faulty.
You may want to google the error message. I found the exact error
string to appear in the new kernel version for the first time.
