Solving Problems

If the power light is blinking amber — The
computer is receiving electrical power, but a
device might be malfunctioning or incorrectly
installed. You may have to remove and then
reinstall the memory modules (for information on
removing and replacing memory modules, see
the Service Manual on the Dell Support website
at support.dell.com).

If you encounter interference that hinders
reception on your computer
— An unwanted
signal is creating interference by interrupting or
blocking other signals. Some possible causes of
interference are:

Power, keyboard, and mouse extension

cables.

Too many devices connected to a power

strip.

Multiple power strips connected to the same

electrical outlet.

Memory Problems

If you receive an insufficient memory
message—

Save and close any open files and exit any

open programs you are not using to see if
that resolves the problem.

See the software documentation for

minimum memory requirements. If
necessary, install additional memory (See
the Service Manual on the Dell Support
website at support.dell.com).

Reseat the memory modules (See the

Service Manual on the Dell Support website
at support.dell.com) to ensure that your
computer is successfully communicating
with the memory.

If you experience other memory problems

Ensure that you are following the memory

installation guidelines (see the Service
Manual
on the Dell Support website at
support.dell.com).
