According to this: 1998: SUMMARY: Memory Address not Aligned error
It's either a bad cpu or bad memory module. So try swapping those out.

Did you do a memory upgrade or something recently? Maybe the DIMM modules are not seated correctly or might be in the wrong order. you might check that before replacing that
