You are right.

I have 2GB x 4 = 8GB RAM and ECC is turned on and I have following settings 
in BIOS:

4GB Memory Hole adjust  -> AUTO
DRAM Bank interleave            -> AUTO
Node memory interleave  -> Disabled
ACPI SRAT table         -> Disabled
HPET Timer                      -> Enabled
ECC                             -> Enabled
DRAM ECC                        -> Enabled
ECC Scrub Redirection           -> Disabled
Chip-Kill                       -> Enabled
DCACHE ECC Scrub CTL    -> Disabled
L2 ECC Scrub CTL                -> Disabled
Dram ECC Scrub CTL              -> Disabled

Is there anything wrong in BIOS settings?

thanks,

Ganbold
