Note: ×4 DIMMs are not supported in any slot or configuration.
With a ×32 DIMM in slot 3, a ×8 DIMM is NOT supported in either slots 1 or 2. All other
combinations of DIMMs (with the exception of the ×4’s) are supported.
If the ROM encounters a ×4 DIMM or any of the unsupported Ч8/Ч32 combinations in the system
during POST, the ROM will issue a “213 – Incompatible DIMM in Slot x,x,x” error message and halt
the processor (the system will not boot). The “x” in the error message equals the slot number(s) of
the incompatible DIMM(s). If an unsupported configuration is found, the solution is to replace the ×4
DIMM or move the Ч8/Ч32 DIMMs into a supported configuration.
