The FCC could just not allow computers to ship it without.
CPU makers like Intel and AMD could simply have their CPUs not work with non-ECC RAM.
Microsoft could e.g. require ECC RAM for Windows 12.
It is insanity that most computers shipping today do not use ECC and are thus unreliable.
With luck they'll crash, but most likely they will fail silently, while corrupting data.
