Problem with Verizon PCMCIA cards

I am setting up an x60s for a VIP. I have tried two different verizon PCMCIA cards, and both are having issues. The models are Kyocera 650 and the Verizon 5740.

What happens is that oonce the software is installed, the system becomes very unstable and at some point blue screens with the error:

NMI: Parity Check / Memory parity error

Anyone having the same issue or have any ideas? It seems to me that there could be a hardware problem here, but wanted to check on it first.

The obvious question.

Why did he buy an X60 without the built-in Verizon card?

Sorry, I can't be of much help, my X60 has the built in Verizon, which works great.
