System will not boot or does not function properly after installing additional memory modules.
Cause Solution
A memory module is not installed in the DIMM1 or XMM1 socket. 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.
Memory module is not the correct type or speed grade for the
system or the new memory module is not seated properly.
Replace module with the correct industry-standard device for the
computer. On some models, ECC and non-ECC memory modules
cannot be mixed.
Out of memory error.
Cause Solution
You have run out of memory to run the application. Check the application documentation to determine the memory
requirements.
Memory count during POST is wrong.
Cause Solution
The memory modules may not be installed correctly. Check that the memory modules have been installed correctly and
that proper modules are used.
Integrated graphics may use system memory. No action required.
Insucient memory error during operation.
Cause Solution
Too many Terminate and Stay Resident programs (TSRs) are
installed.
Delete any TSRs that you do not need.
You have run out of memory for the application. Check the memory requirements for the application or add more
memory to the computer.
Power LED ashes Red ve times, once every second, followed by a two second pause, and the computer beeps ve times. (Beeps
stop after fth iteration but LEDs continue ashing.)
Cause Solution
Memory is installed incorrectly or is bad. 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.
