Memory Errors
Memory errors on the system display the new ON-FLASH-FLASH or ON-FLASH-ON failure code. If all memory fails, the LCD
does not turn on. Troubleshoot for possible memory failure by trying known good memory modules in the memory connectors on
the bottom of the system or under the keyboard, as in some portable systems.
