Okay so I've been getting this Oops error for some time now and it usually makes my computer hang after a couple days. Sometimes after a couple hours. I'm looking for someone that can help me, or someone that can tell me where to get help. I've read some posts on how to get the Oops message readable (Obviously not readable by me) Now at this point I don't know what to do.

Thanx in advance,

Kernel 2.6.8(.1-12mdk)
Mandrake 10.1

I get this Oops and it's repeated about 7 times over, and says the same thing every time.

This architecture has variable length instructions, decoding before eip
is unreliable, take these instructions with a pinch of salt.

What are you doing when this happens? What program(s) cause it? Is it reproduceable? Have you run memtest86?
