Things to Try:

Check any fuses or circuit breakers in the chassis or other power supply (possibly a UPS).
Make sure the processor module is firmly seated in the chassis.
Remove all other modules (except the system controller) from the chassis.
Remove any nonessential cables or devices.
Try the processor module in a different chassis.

Make sure the RAM is properly seated.
My system boots fine as long as a particular module is
not in my chassis.
The most common cause of this is a damaged module. Try the module in a different chassis or
with a different controller. Also, remove any external cables or terminal blocks connected to
the system. If the module does not work in these cases, it is likely damaged. Contact the
module manufacturer for further troubleshooting.
Refer to the KnowledgeBase at
more information specific to the chassis and controller with which you are having difficulties.
