This is a bug that occurs between certain memory modules, and the BIOS.
Try changing the memory.
If you don't have other memory for this machine, boot the PC, and hit the delete key a lot, you may be able to get into the setup routine. Make sure the quick POST is enabled, and the test that causes this problem, should be bypassed.

:
If the above does not work, take out all of the memory, enable quick post in the BIOS (if possible), boot, and check for the Update ESCD message. Shut down.
Then put the memory back in. Leave Quick POST enabled and try to boot again.
This should reset the installed memory setting in the BIOS.

Make sure that everything is fully seated on the systemboard as well. Especially memory.
