		• The memory modules are seated correctly.
		• You have installed the correct type of memory.
		• If you changed the memory, you updated the memory configuration in the
		Setup Utility program.
		• All banks of memory are enabled. The server might have automatically
		disabled a memory bank when it detected a problem, or a memory bank
		might have been manually disabled.
	2.	Check the POST event log for DIMM error messages:
		• If a DIMM was disabled by a systems-management interrupt (SMI), replace
		the DIMM.
		• If a DIMM was disabled by the user or by POST, run the Setup Utility program
		and enable the DIMM.
	3.	Make sure that there is no memory mismatch when the server is at the minimum
