Problem Description
A possible USB failure has occurred.
No memory modules are detected.
Memory modules are detected, but a
memory configuration or
compatibility error exists.
Suggested Resolution
Reinstall all USB devices, check
cable connections, and then restart
the computer.
• Reinstall all memory modules
(see page 87) and restart
the computer.
• To eliminate the possibility of a
faulty memory connector,
remove all memory modules
(see page 87), reinstall one
memory module (if the
computer supports a single
module), and then restart the
computer. If the computer starts
normally, move the memory
module to a different connector
and restart the computer.
Continue until you have
identified a faulty connector
or reinstalled all modules
without error.
• Ensure that there are no special
memory module/memory
connector placement
requirements (see page 87).
• Verify that the memory modules
that you are installing are
compatible with your computer
(see page 87).
• If the problem persists, contact
Dell (see page 113).
