I have a PowerEdge 2970 that failed to boot after a Windows update. We could not even get to the BIOS screen. So, following some other posts here, I basically pulled everything, and started installing parts one at a time.
The unit boots (with the memory configuration error) if I only put dimms in slots 1/2, but if I put dimms in slots 5/6 (processor 2)... no boot.
I have 4 4Gb sticks, and I have swapped all of them into positions 1/2, so I know the sticks are good.
It would seem as if my issue is either the memory slots or the processor, so I am wondering if I should bother swapping the processors first?
