Hi Bill,
there is no way to turn parity checking on or off in my bios. 755CX. HBE.
the 370/32 works fine. the 750/32 works but is VERY SLOW. easy setup takes a
long time to check the memory on the 370/32. it takes forever
(20minutes+!!!) to check 750/32.
it is my humble opinion from this obvious difference that the KTM-TP370/32
is the way to go with this machine.
Thanks, Toni Kennedy
