diagnosis is given by the HP Call Center or service technician.
The service number labels should be referenced when
calling for service.
Memory Considerations
The upgrade kit comes standard with 10 PC133 SDRAM
DIMMs. The upgraded server can support either PC100 or
PC133 memory. In addition, both PC100 and PC133 memory
can be installed in the system at the same time, as long as the
memory is installed in different bank pairs. With any PC100
memory in the system, the memory subsystem will run at
100 MHz.
Eight or ten DIMMs are required to fill bank pairs, as
indicated by socket numbers 1&2, 3&4, 5&6, 7&8, and must
be installed in numerical bank order.
To install PC100 memory in the system, use one of the
following DIMMs.
