Alert! Card Cage Fan Failure — The PCI card cooling fan is not installed, has failed, or is not properly connected to the system board. Ensure that an operational fan is properly installed and connected to the system board. For more information, see the Service Manual at support.dell.com.
NOTE: This error message applies only to Dell Precision™ 650 computers.
Alert! Chipset Heatsink Not Detected — The heat sink is not properly installed on the system board. Reseat the heat sink on the system board. See the system board illustration for your computer (for the Dell Precision 650 computer, see "System Board Components" or for the Dell Precision 450 computer, see "System Board Components."
Alert! Cover Was Previously Opened — The computer cover was opened. Enter system setup and reset the Chassis Intrusion option.
Alert! CPU 0 Fan Failure — The cooling fan for microprocessor 0 is not installed, has failed, or is not properly connected to the system board. Ensure that the cooling fan is properly installed and working. Also, ensure that the microprocessor airflow shroud is properly installed. See "Microprocessor."
Alert! CPU 1 Fan Failure — The cooling fan for microprocessor 1 is not installed, has failed, or is not properly connected to the system board. Ensure that the cooling fan is properly installed and working. Also, ensure that the microprocessor airflow shroud is properly installed. See "Microprocessor."
Alert! Memory Population Mismatch. DIMM Slot 1 and DIMM Slot 3 Are Disabled and Performance Will be Degraded — The memory module connectors are not populated in matched pairs or there is a defective memory module in the computer. Ensure that memory modules of identical size, type, speed, and number of chips are installed in memory module connectors 1 and 2 and memory modules of identical size, type, speed, and number of chips are installed in memory module connectors 3 and 4 (if used). See "Memory."
Alert! Operating in Debug Mode. Please Populate Memory in Pairs for Normal Operation — This message appears when one memory module is installed in memory module connector 4. This is a troubleshooting mode that allows you to isolate a defective memory module, see "Memory Problems."
Alert! OS Install Mode Enabled — The OS Install Mode in system setup is set to On, which limits the amount of memory to 256 MB because some operating systems will not complete installation with more than 2 GB of memory. After you have installed the operating system, enter system setup and set the OS Install Mode to Off.
Alert! Power Supply Fan Failure — The power supply fan has failed or is blocked. Ensure that the power supply airflow vents are not blocked.
Alert! Previous Attempts at Booting This System Have Failed at Checkpoint [nnnn ]. For Help in Resolving This Problem, Please Note This Checkpoint and Contact Dell Technical Support — The computer failed to complete the boot routine three consecutive times for the same error. Contact Dell and report the checkpoint code (nnnn) to the support technician.
Alert! Previous Fan Failures — The fan caused an error last time you used the computer. Ensure that nothing is blocking the airflow vents and that all the fans are properly installed and operating correctly.
Alert! Previous Processor Thermal Failure — The microprocessor overheated the last time you used the computer. Ensure that nothing is blocking the airflow vents and that all the fans are properly installed and operating correctly. Also, ensure that the microprocessor heat sink is properly installed.
Alert! Previous Reboot Was Due to Voltage Regulator Failure — The VRM failed the last time you used the computer. Contact Dell for assistance.
Alert! Previous Shutdown Due to Thermal Event — The microprocessor overheated the last time you used the computer. Ensure that nothing is blocking the airflow vents and that all the fans are working correctly. Also, ensure that the microprocessor heat sink is properly installed.
Alert! Previous Voltage Failure — Voltage used by the computer either exceeded or fell below acceptable thresholds. See "Power Problems" and "System Board Problems."
Alert! Processor Cache Size Mistmatch. Install Like Processors or One Processor. System Halted! — Two processor with different cache sizes are installed. See "Microprocessor."
Alert! Processor Speed Mismatch. Install Like Processors or One Processor. System Halted! — Two processor with different speeds are installed. See "Microprocessor."
Alert! Processor Type Mismatch. Install Like Processors or One Processor. System Halted! — Two processor with different types are installed. See "Microprocessor."
Alert! System Battery Voltage is Low — The computer battery is providing inadequate voltage. See "Battery."
