Replace module with the correct, industry-standard device
for the workstation.
On some models, ECC and nonECC memory modules
cannot be mixed.
Use the Device Manager to verify memory configuration.
Review the application documentation to determine the
memory requirements.
Verify that the memory modules have been installed
correctly and that proper modules are used.
Delete any TSRs that you do not need.
Verify the memory requirements for the application or add
more memory to the workstation.
