Hi Thomas,

If there is a card in PCI slot:

1. Check what card is installed in that Slot.
2. remove the card and c if that error comes up again.

the ab ove steps are done to isolate any card issues.

If no cards in PCI slot:

1. then have a look at the BIOS firmware revision checked.If possible update it to latest(Lot of PCI bus erros get resolved with Latest firmware BIOS).

following link would help you in updating server BIOS.
