POST fails to complete:
Is the memory installed properly?
→ POST does not complete if a DIMM is not installed properly.
Are memory devices of a large capacity installed?
→ Depending on the installed memory size, it takes time to check the memory. Wait
for a while.
Are the keyboard or mouse used after starting the CPU blade?
→ If you use the keyboard or mouse after POST is started, POST may detect an error
of the keyboard controller and halt. If this occurs, start POST again. After
restarting POST, do not perform any operation by using the keyboard or mouse
until the BIOS start message appears.
Are memory and PCI devices that are incompatible with the CPU blade installed?
→ NEC cannot guarantee the operation of any devices other than those approved by
NEC.

– Press the RESET switch of the CPU blade.
