- Run the memory tests. Use the RUN TESTS ONE TIME option. If you cannot run the memory test or the test does not find a problem, use the following procedure to find a problem.

1.  Using a known good memory pack, exchange each  pack, one at a time, and repeat the memory  diagnostics test until you find the defective pack  (256KB and 1MB packs are not interchangeable).  Replace only the defective packs.
2.  If all memory packs have been exchanged, and the  problem remains, replace the system board.
