122 Chapter 7 Troubleshooting Without Diagnostics
Solving Memory Problems
Solution
Ensure that a memory module is installed in the DIMM1 or
XMM1 socket on the system board. This socket must be
populated with a memory module.
Replace module with the correct industry-standard device for
the computer. On some models, ECC and non-ECC memory
modules cannot be mixed.
Solution
Check the application documentation to determine the
memory requirements.
Solution
Check that the memory modules have been installed
correctly and that proper modules are used.
No action required.
Solution
Delete any TSRs that you do not need.
Check the memory requirements for the application or add
more memory to the computer.
Solution
1. Reseat DIMMs. Power on the system.
2. Replace DIMMs one at a time to isolate the faulty
module.
3. Replace third-party memory with HP memory.
4. Replace the system board.
