[Solved] What is the purpose of AppleTyMCEDriver.kext?

I've searched the net but the only thing I can find is some very short discussion (in German) and the translatio seems to say it's something to do with ECC RAM.

Thanks!

It controls the relationship between the OS and ECC RAM.
If you do not have ECC RAM and you use the SMBIOS of a Mac that does then you will experience a KP on boot.
This can be avoided if you boot with -nehalem_error_disable.
