Remove and reinstall all memory modules and CRIMMs. Ensure that all the connector tabs are locked. Restart the computer.

Install the memory modules in memory connectors RIMM 1 (located closest to the microprocessor) and RIMM 2 and ensure that, if no additional memory is used, CRIMMs are installed in memory connectors RIMM 3 and RIMM 4.

If you installed memory modules in memory connectors RIMM3 and RIMM4 that were not purchased from Dell, remove the modules and replace them with the CRIMMs that were originally installed in your computer.

If available, install Dell memory of the same type into your computer.

If the problem persists, contact Dell.
