Troubleshooting
Solution
Enter the BIOS Setup and save the new
memory configuration.
Check the memory for proper seating and
orientation.
Replace the card on which the faulty chip
resides. Third-party diagnostic programs can
help determine which chip or memory
segment is failing.

If your system BIOS enables you to select the
processor speed, make sure you have
selected the speed properly.
Check to make sure the processor is fully
seated in its socket.
