You can often prevent parity check errors by disabling parity checking in the BIOS if you have such an option there. Removing the memory and cleaning the contacts and reinstalling it might help too.

Parity......8 bits to a bite. Actually there are 9. .....1 for"parity" Parity is just in case some thing goes wrong.
If the fail safe fails.......then yes you need to do some clean up.
Not a techy......but it seems your bios are getting double messages.
Find out what bios you have......get a fresh copy......flash "overwrite"....
Bios are free.
You should be good to go.
