Memory/Processor Problems
Memory errors were detected during system start up.
A new processor is not recognized by the system.
Probable Cause Solution
Memory was added
or removed, and the
new configuration was
not saved in Setup
utility.
Enter Setup and save the new memory
configuration.
The memory was
installed incorrectly.
Check the memory for proper seating and
orientation.
A memory chip is
faulty.
Replace the card on which the faulty chip
resides. Third-party diagnostic programs
can help determine which chip or memory
segment is failing.
Probable Cause Solution
The processor was
installed incorrectly.
Check the installation. The processor
should be recognized automatically if it was
installed correctly.
The processor speed
was not set correctly
in the Setup utility
configuration mode.
If your system BIOS enables you to select
the processor speed, make sure you have
selected the speed properly.
The processor was
not seated correctly in
the socket.
Check to make sure the processor is fully
seated in its socket.
