- Sometimes components become loose and just need a simple reseat. So this is the first place I would start. Reseat all expansion cards, memory, data connectors, power connectors, etc. Here is a link to the manual on how these components can be removed and put back in.

- Once the components are reseated, then power back up and see if the error is gone. If it is, then simply monitor to ensure it does not come back. Or you can also move forward with hardware diagnostics.
- If the error did not go away, then the next step would be to take all the expansion cards out. Then power up the system and ensure it does not have the error. If it does have the error, with no expansion cards installed, then you can lean towards the system board.
- As long as you do not get an error, with no expansion cards installed, you can then start adding the expansion cards back in one at a time. Make sure after you add a card back in you power on to test and see if the error comes back or not. If you install a card and the error comes back, that is a pretty good indication of the problem.
This may seem like a lot, but really once you start the process it does not take long at all.
Thanks.
