Memory modules are

detected, but a

memory power failure

has occurred.

• If two or more memory modules are

installed, remove the modules, then

reinstall one module and restart the

computer.
If the computer starts normally,

continue to install additional memory

modules (one at a time) until you

have identified a faulty module or

reinstalled all modules without error.
If only one memory module is

installed, try moving it to a different

memory of the same type into your

computer.
