No memory modules

are detected.

• Reinstall all memory modules (see page 83)

and restart the computer.

• To eliminate the possibility of a faulty

memory connector, remove all memory

modules, reinstall one memory module (if

the computer supports a single module) (see

page 83), and then restart the computer. If

the computer starts normally, move the

memory module to a different connector and

restart the computer. Continue until you

have identified a faulty connector or

reinstalled all modules without error.

• If the problem persists, contact Dell (see

page 100).

Determine if a conflict exists by removing a

card (see page 75) and then restarting the

computer.

If the problem persists, reinstall the card that

you removed (see page 75), remove a

different card, and then restart the

computer.

Repeat this process for each card. If the

computer starts normally, troubleshoot the

last card removed from the computer for

resource conflicts (see "Resolving Software

and Hardware Incompatibilities" on

page 63).

If the problem persists, contact Dell (see

page 100).
