    A parity error on boot generally indicates:

    a)
    Bad video
    b)
    Bad disk
    c)
    Faulty RAM or memory subsystem
    d)
    Bad keyboard

    Explanation

    Parity checks detect single-bit errors in memory. When the stored parity doesn’t match calculated parity, the BIOS flags it. Reseat or replace the RAM and test thoroughly.
