    Having recently purchased a copy of Windows Vista Ultimate X64 and
    having this error at first drove me bankers. But I then stepped back
    and I thought about it some more and I just tried a solution that
    worked!

    I went into the BIOS and changed the memory timing from 166 MHz for DDR
    333 memory, to 133 MHz.

    I then saved this change in the BIOS and proceeded to to boot-up from
    Windows Vista Ultimate X64 without any more errors!

    This is a fairly common problem with many motherboards if all the memory
    slots are filled.
