Suggested Resolution
• If you have two or more memory

• If the computer has a graphics card,
remove the card (see page 81),
reinstall it, and then restart the
computer.
• If the problem still exists, install a
graphics card that you know works and
restart the computer.
• If the problem persists or the
computer has integrated graphics,
contact Dell (see page 123).
Reseat all power and data cables and
restart the computer.
Reinstall all USB devices, check cable
connections, and then restart the
computer.
