Memory Errors; Losing The System's Setup Configuration; When The System Becomes Unstable - Supermicro X11SCE-F User Manual

Memory Errors

1. Make sure that the DIMM modules are properly and fully installed.
2. Confirm that you are using the correct memory. 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.
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 Configuration

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 Section 1.6 for
details on recommended power supplies.
2. The battery on your motherboard 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 fix the setup configuration problem, contact your vendor for
repairs.

When the System Becomes Unstable

A. If the system becomes unstable during or after OS installation, check the following:
1. CPU/BIOS support: Make sure that your CPU is supported and that you have the latest
BIOS installed in your system.
