Re: Install Fails on T5240

Jeremy,

I'm unsure if this helps on FBDIMMs, but you could try reseating the CPU 
and cleaning (compressed air) of the CPU socket & affected memory module 
socket.

I have had success on "weird" memory errors on SD-RAM & DDR Systems in 
the past by reseating the CPU.
FB-Dimm is a bit different, though, as the modules are on a serial 
bus-like structure iirc, so I'm unsure if a single module on a channel 
can be affected and others fine if the CPU connection is the culprit...

Also, if the system has pluggable VRMs for CPUs and Memory, try swapping 
them left/right and see if the error follows.

Greetings,
Robin
