Memory Problems

If you receive an insufficient memory
message —
• Save and close any open files and exit any
open programs you are not using to see if
that resolves the problem.
• See the software documentation for
minimum memory requirements. If
necessary, install additional memory (see the
Service Manual on the Dell Support website
at support.dell.com/manuals).
• Reseat the memory modules (see the
Service Manual on the Dell Support
website at support.dell.com/manuals) to
ensure that your computer is successfully
communicating with the memory.
