TP 600 - Memory Checkout Guide
Applicable to: World-Wide
DIMM cards are available for increasing memory capacity.
Memory errors might stop system operations, show error messages on the screen, or hang the system.
Use the following procedure to isolate memory problems:
1. Power off the computer and remove any installed DIMM from its slot.
2. Press and hold the F1 key; then power on the computer. Hold the F1 key down until the Easy-Setup menu appears.
3. Select Test and press Enter.
4. Select Memory and press Enter to run the memory test on base memory. If an error appears, replace the system board.
5. Power off the computer and reinstall the DIMM; then power on the computer. Verify the memory size; then test the memory. If an error appears, replace the
DIMM.
Note: Make sure that the DIMM is fully installed into the connector. A loose connection can cause an error. See Running the Diagnostics. If memory problems occur intermittently, use the loop option to repeat the test. When the test detects an error, an error log is printed on the printer connected to the parallel port. See Displaying the Error Log for more information.
