1 I share this opinion.
2 The message says - even if the error was corrected - that there's
3 something dramatically wrong with your - i suppose - CPU.
4 "Corrected error" might imply, that some low-level feature got disabled
5 in order to prevent furher errors.

7 Does this error appear only once at early boot or frequently?
