Recommended action
1. Set the date and time from the Control Panel or in
the Computer Setup (F10) Utility (depending on
the operating system).
2. If the problem persists, replace the RTC battery.
1. Run the Computer Setup (F10) Utility or Windows
utilities.
2. Verify that the memory modules (if any) are
installed properly.
3. If third-party memory has been added, test the
memory configuration using HP memory.
4. Verify proper memory module type.
Reset the processor jumper correctly.
1. Run the Computer Setup (F10) utiltiy or Windows
utilities.
2. Be sure that memory and continuity modules are
installed correctly.
3. Verify proper memory module type.
4. Remove and replace memory modules one at a
time to isolate faulty modules.
5. Replace faulty memory modules.
6. If error persists after replacing memory modules,
replace the system board.
Replace the memory modules with matched sets.
Replace the memory module.
Reseat the memory module correctly.
Ensure that a memory module cooling fan is installed
and operating correctly.
Reconfigure the memory modules in the proper slots.
1. Verify proper memory module type.
2. Insert the DIMM in another memory socket.
3. Replace memory module if problem persists.
Ensure that the two DIMMs are installed in slots one
and five only.
Ensure memory modules are compatible with
workstation requirements.
