Still broken with the latest update, in fact worse than before. It is perfectly normal and expected that you can use either non-ECC or ECC memory with the NForce4 Ultra chipset, and it gets handled appropriately. This machine is working fine. The "EDAC amd64" driver is broken if it is treating this an an error. If it only supports ECC memory, then either it should not be being loaded or it should gracefully exit/fail with a statement to that effect.
