is it a problem with the CPU, the Memory or the Motheboard ?

I started getting those same errors recently on a dual-Opteron, one of the
sticks of RAM was going bad. Looking in the BIOS' log also showed single-
and double-bit memory errors. I pulled out the memory attached to the
processer in question, and all of the problems stopped.
