Smart Array 3200 & NetServer LH3 NMI: Memory Parity Error

I've installed w2003 server on a netserver lh3.
S.O. is installed in a RAID1 volume attached to the NetRaid controller (C:), and i have 1 storage unit attached to the Smart array 3200 controller, which have 2 volumes (D: y E:) The problem is when i copy and paste or move files from any volume on the storage to volume C: or to the other volume in the storage.
the server stops responding and display a blue screen with the following message:

*** Hardware Malfunction
Call your hardware vendor for support
*** The system has halted ***
NMI: Parity Check / Memory Parity Error


Firmware, Drivers, BIOS, ACU are up to date.
From C: to D: or E: no problems, only from D: to C: or From E: to C:
I also have tried remplacing memory, removing other devices and nothing

Any Suggestions???

Best regards.

Hi Samuel,

We've had the same error on a proliant with windows 2003 server. Its happened twice when we rebooted th server without switching on the Quantum tape unit. Its probably coincidence but once the error occurs we have to rebuild/repair windows 2003. I would love to know if you ever discovered the cause of the error
