Memory Problems
If you receive an insufficient memory message —

•See the software documentation for minimum memory requirements. If necessary, install additional memory (see the Service Manual at support.dell.com/manuals).
•Reseat the memory module(s) into the connector(s) (see the Service Manual at support.dell.com/manuals).
•If the problem persists, contact Dell (see “Contacting Dell” on page 80).
If you experience other memory problems —
