Memory problems 
Incorrectly connected or faulty memory modules may cause 
errors that seem to be device-related. It is worthwhile 
checking for these first:
1
Click Start, then click Turn off computer.
2
Click Turn Off.
The operating system shuts down and turns off the computer 
automatically.
3
Remove the memory module.
4
Reinstall the memory module, following the instructions 
in 
, and making sure it is 
seated properly.
5
Check for the error again.
6
If the error recurs, remove the memory module entirely 
and check for the error again.
If removing the memory module eliminates the error, the 
memory module may be faulty. If the error recurs without the 
memory module installed, the error is not caused by the 
memory module.
TECHICAL NOTE: You must have a least one memory module 
installed for the computer to work.

interrelated. For example, a faulty AC adapter or power cable 
will neither power the computer nor recharge the batteries.
Here are some typical problems and how to solve them:
