Power Edge 2600 Memory issue

Hi everyone, I hope you can help me out.

I have a PE 2600, that originally shipped with 512mb ram.  I am trying to upgrade it to 4gb.  I have 2 pairs of Kingston KTD-PE2650/2g 2GB ram kits.  I can install a single pair and the Server boots ok.  if i install both pairs, the server will not Post.   I have swapped out each pair and the server will boot fine on each pair, so I know the memory is good.  When I installed the memory, i used Banks 1a, 1b, 2a, 2b.

Has anyone else had this problem or do I have a faulty motherboard?

 

Thanks for the help.

Hi psb4me,

From what i can gather the server does not support 4Gb

Just the following configurations:

2 GB =  512 MB  512 MB  512 MB  512 MB
2 GB =  1 GB   1 GB
3 GB =  1 GB   1 GB  512 MB  512 MB
6 GB =  1 GB   1 GB  1 GB  1 GB  1 GB  1 GB

What is your BIOS at?  Should be at least A10, but I would recommend the latest A14 for full memory support - system BIOS originally supported only 6GB max.
