Dell PowerEdge 1600SC Server problem

Hi,

I have a Dell PowerEdge 1600SC Server. Yesterday I found that server is not responding (Hanged). I restarted it by RESTART button on front pannel, on booting it shows "memmory has been changed" cheked all devices connected and after two minutes it shutdowns. I again start it and now it boots perfectly with no error but after two-three minutes it shutdowns again.
What could be the problem?

    Thanks Coss.



    I fixed the problem. I cleaned the entire motherboard and memmory sockets with IPA. Reassembled the server and now it is up.

I had the same thing happen in a 600SC about a month ago.
Replaced the memory, and it fixed the problem.

It did the same hang. Would run fine for any where from a hour to 3 hours, and then quit (hang). And I got the same message. Talk to them and it was a short in the memory module, so some times it would read the entire stick, other times it would "not see it", and that would lock the OS.

    Great!

    Glad it was a simple fix for you.

    The one I had go bad was 430 miles away. Made my fix a little longer.

Dell PowerEdege 1600SC not recognizing IO devices

Just go into the bios and insert the correct parameters. you shut it off before it could save the settings. Or hit fi on boot and it should take you into the bios and you cand sort it out in there. If you want an easy way, just do a system restore. Start,Programs, accesorys, system tools, system restore, just go back a day or two before you had that issue, and you should be good to go, good luck

My Dell powerEdge 1600SC Server Fail.....

Sounds like you're running Windows Server 2003 and want to run a backup utility.

Fortunately, this OS ships with a built-in backup utility called we call "ntbackup."

You can launch this program from Start -> Run, or you can find it in Start -> Accessories -> System Tools -> Backup.

Dell PowerEdge 1600sc server is running

What operating system is the server using? What roles is the server doing (DNS/DHCP/DC/Exchange/etc). If it's a Windows 2003 SBS box, you're supposed to be able to run upto about 75 users. I would never run more than 30 users on an SBS box (and it'd have to be a very high spec). You may consdier bringing another server to do an aditional role (file/print) and leave the primary to be an SBS box
