— 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

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).
Check if the memory module is compatible

with your computer. Your computer supports

DDR3 memory. For more information about the

type of memory supported by your computer,

see “Basic Specifications” on page 66.
Run the Dell Diagnostics (see “Dell

Diagnostics” on page 45).
Reseat the memory modules (see the
