##### (Fixed in SW 1.1) DIMM Correctable Error Causes System Hang During POST (6902398)

If a DIMM correctable error (CE) occurs during POST and before the OS takes control, then the system might hang. If this problem occurs the video output will look similar to the following with no further output:

## Workaround

1. Reboot your system.
2. If the problem reoccurs, reboot another 1–2 times.
3. If the problem persists, initiate a service call, as it is possible there is a faulty DIMM in your system that will need to be replaced.
