Memory Errors
1. Make sure that the DIMM modules are properly and fully installed.
2. You should be using registered ECC DDR-2 memory (see next page). Also, it
is recommended that you use the same memory type and speed for all DIMMs in
the system. See Section 2-4 for memory details and limitations.
3. Check for bad DIMM modules or slots by swapping modules between slots and
noting the results.
4. Check the power supply voltage 115V/230V switch.
Losing the System’s Setup Confi guration
1. Make sure that you are using a high quality power supply. A poor quality power
supply may cause the system to lose the CMOS setup information. Refer to Sec-
tion 1-6 for details on recommended power supplies.
2. The battery on your serverboard may be old. Check to verify that it still supplies
~3VDC. If it does not, replace it with a new one.
3. If the above steps do not fi x the setup confi guration problem, contact your vendor
for repairs.
