1. Reseat the microprocessor/memory cards, see "Removing
a microprocessor/memory card" on page 51 and
"Replacing a microprocessor/memory card" on page 51.
2. Reseat the DIMMs, see "Removing a DIMM" on page 48
and "Replacing a DIMM" on page 49.
3. Replace the following components one at a time, in the
order shown, restarting the server each time:
a. DIMMs, see "Removing a DIMM" on page 48 and
"Replacing a DIMM" on page 49.
b. Microprocessor/memory card 4, 3, 2; then, 1. See

1. Reseat the first microprocessor/memory card that contains
DIMMs, see "Removing a microprocessor/memory card"
on page 51 and "Replacing a microprocessor/memory
card" on page 51.
2. Reseat the DIMMs, see "Removing a DIMM" on page 48
and "Replacing a DIMM" on page 49.
3. Replace the lowest-numbered pair of DIMMs with an
identical known good pair of DIMMs; then, restart the
server. See "Removing a DIMM" on page 48 and
"Replacing a DIMM" on page 49. If the beep code error
remains, go to 4a. Return one DIMM at a time from the
failed pair to its connector, restarting the server after each
DIMM, to identify the failed DIMM.
