Issues with EDAC: filesystem remounts as read only

I have searched for solutions online for days now. The closest I got to was an Arch Wiki blog with a single comment suggesting this wasn't a bug but only needed a BIOS update.

Here is what I get from dmesg:

[ 14.866246] EXT4-fs (sda3): re-mounted. Opts: errors=remount-ro
[ 24.058308] int3403 thermal: probe of INT3403:03 failed with error -22
[ 29.125473] EDAC pnd2: Failed to register device with error -22.
[ 29.165013] EDAC pnd2: Failed to register device with error -22.
[ 29.201079] EDAC pnd2: Failed to register device with error -22.
[ 29.245397] EDAC pnd2: Failed to register device with error -22.

I have tried fsck but this has not helped me since it suggested that the filesystem is already mounted. What am I doing wrong and how could I permanently resolve this? For more context, I cannot move files to Windows since the filesystem is read only. I am dual booting from an external HDD if that helps.

Here is what I finally did(in case someone ever gets this issue) : Live boot with USB. Unmount all file systems. Use fsck.ext4 on the known error some file system(/dev/sda3) for me. Use ntfsfix on NTFS file system. Reboot. This does not solve the EDAC error. I read an Intel blog that suggested something about ECC but failed to find that in my BIOS settings.
