Is this a dual CPU system?  If so, then some of the QPI links between the CPUs are not working correctly.  It could be a CPU or a CPU socket issue.  If the system is new and under warranty, contact HP support.

Ask them to escalate your case since a new Z840 should work without any POST errors.

 

I have had other issues and being persistent regarding your case and asking them to escalate your case should do the trick. I have had computers that dont boot up and their solution was to upgrade the BIOS wich of course did not solve the problem since the motherboard was defect. Sometimes the support can be really bad.
