4350 Systems Installation and Troubleshooting Guide
NOTE: If the memory total is incorrect, turn off the computer and peripherals and
disconnect them from their electrical outlets, remove the computer cover and
memory module, and check all the installed DIMMs to make sure they are seated
properly in their sockets. Then close the computer panel doors, reconnect the
power cables, and turn the system on.
The system detects that the new memory does not match the system configura-
tion information, which is stored in nonvolatile random-access memory (NVRAM).
The monitor displays an error message to that effect, ending with the following
words:
3UHVV±Á)¹!±WR±FRQWLQXH±Á)º!±WR±HQWHU±6\VWHP±6HWXS»±
Á&75/!Á$/7!Á)¹¸!±WR±HQWHU±8WLOLW\±0RGH³
5.
Press <F2> to enter the System Setup program, and check the
System Memory
set-
ting in the system data box on either of the System Setup screens.
See Chapter 4, ²Using the System Setup Program,³ in the
User±s Guide
for more
information about the System Setup program.
The system should have already changed the
System Memory
value to reflect
the newly installed memory.
If the total is incorrect, one or more of the DIMMs may not be installed properly.
Repeat this procedure, checking to make sure the DIMMs are firmly seated in
their sockets.
6.
Run the RCU. Then save the configuration and exit the utility.
Running the RCU and saving the configuration is required for the system to
recognize the newly installed DIMMs. See Chapter 5, ²Using the Resource Con-
figuration Utility,³ in the
User±s Guide
for instructions on running the utility and
saving the configuration.
7.
Run the RAM test group in the Dell Diagnostics.
See Chapter 5, ²Running the Dell Diagnostics,³ for information.

To install a DIMM, follow these steps:
1.
Press the ejectors on the DIMM socket down and outward as shown in
Figure 8-6 to allow the DIMM to be inserted in the socket.
2.
Align the DIMM±s edge connector with the slot in the center of the DIMM socket,
and insert the DIMM in the socket.
The card-edge connector on the DIMM has two notches that allow the DIMM to
be installed in the socket in only one way (see Figure 8-6).
