z600
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi everyone, I have z600 workstation and have been running it with 2x Xeon E5540 CPUs and 6X2GB 1333mhz RAMs(non ECC). I'm trying to use 6X4GB Micron PC3-10600R DDR3 1333 4GB ECC REG but it wont boot up, displays RAM error. its supposed to support this amount and speed of ram. any help would be appreciated

Is it a version 1 or a version 2 Z600? You get that from your BIOS... post the boot block date from there.

 

You can't mix and match memory beyond a small degree... it would be helpful to post a picture of each of your 6 sticks so we could identify if your new sticks are matching properly. I assume you're not trying to trying to mix in your new with your old sticks. If you are we need to see the old ones too. If they truly are identical within each set of 6 in that case we'd need to only see one pic of each set but over the years I've seen subtle differences that some forum members don't recognize.
