I'm an Apple guy, but have 2 programs that run on a PowerEdge 1800 Server. The server dell poweredge 1800 power supply replacement is a few years okd and has actually been quite trouble free until the past few days. The very first message at the top of the startup screen is: "Memory Address Line failure at 1C00024C Received FFFFEF7F Expecting FFFFFFFF Decreasing Amount Of Memory Available"

It then continues thru startup and launches Windows 2003 Server. But it is very very slow. Even simple tasks take seconds if not minutes. Programs are basically un-usable. Did our RAM go bad? Or is this a software issue? Any suggestions would be most appreciated/ Like 0 You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

How much RAM is installed, and how much RAM does Windows report? It is pretty likely your memory is bad. You could install just a single DIMM in the first slot, cycling through each to find the bad DIMM. You could also use Dell's 32-bit Diagnostics to test and isolate the faulty DIMM.

Posted by sterling2013 on 28 Oct 2012 11:41 There were four 512mb DIMMs. It seemed to think the max memory was 256mb. Your suggestion on cycling the DIMMs was excellent, It looks like two were bad. It is now running with two 512MB DIMMs and doing OK. They were a bear to get at, having to remove the fan assembly, but it worked. I tried a few local stores nearby to find replacement DIMMs, but no luck. I will just order online tomorrow. Thank you very much for your advice.

It indicates a faulty DIMM that should be replaced but from dell poweredge 1800 what I read on blogs, the alert often clears and does not come back after reboots. Since it only tripped once for me, I cleared the memory errors using OMSA (dcicfg32.exe) and so far so good. share|improve this answer answered Sep 5 '13 at 14:02 AXE-Labs 6361616 This was a good move - replacement typically isn't warranted after a single occurrence, though I'd seriously consider it if the problem ever returns on that particular DIMM. –JimNim Sep 6 '13 at 14:52 Similarly, I was seeing "Single bit warning error rate exceeded" and "Single bit failure error rate exceeded" on a Linux host. These can be cleared as well but with omconfig: 'omconfig system alertlog action=clear' and 'omconfig system esmlog action=clear'. Lets hope they don't come back or its trash for the dimms. –AXE-Labs Mar 6 '14 at 20:18 Make sure you've got the latest firmware/BIOS too -- I have seen cases where these sorts of errors were spurious and "fixed" by firmware. –Wil Cooley May 19 '14 at 8:09 add a comment| up vote 1 down vote Cause of error according to Dell: "A memory device correction rate exceeded an acceptable value, a memory spare bank was activated, or a multibit ECC error occurred. The system continues to function normally (except for a multibit error). Replace the memory module identified in the message during the system's next scheduled maintenance. The memory device status and location are provided." Try replacing
