connected to the controller card.

not seated properly. Open the system and reseat the drive
controller. This possibility is only valid for
systems that include an add-in drive
controller.
Probable Cause Solution
Memory was added or
removed, and the new
configuration was not
saved in BIOS Setup. Enter BIOS Setup and save the new memory
configuration.
The memory was
installed incorrectly. Check the memory for proper seating and
orientation.
A DIMM is faulty. Replace the DIMM. Third-party diagnostic
programs can help determine which DIMM or
memory segment is failing.
Important!
If the error message
“update table not found for
CPUxx, Stepping xxxx”
displays at boot up, run the
MULOADER utility located
on the disk included with
your processor kit. This
message may occur under
the following conditions:
When a new processor has
been added that does not
include the stepping
information in the table.
When the BIOS is flashed,
it may remove the stepping
information form the table
which will cause the error
message to appear.
