ProLiant Gen8 stuck at post (code 0114)

I bought a secondhand Proliant Gen8 microserver which cannot seem to boot and stays stuck at 90% post with message "Memory and QPI Link Initialization Start" and status code 0114.

After I replaced the CPU G1610T with E3-1220L V2, it would not boot, but it was working fine before.

I read this must be related to the DIMMS so I have tried removing one of the two dimms, swaping them, tried all slots and combinations with no luck.

I also read that the system does not support registered dimms. However, my dimms (which look like they are the default certified hp) have this reference: 4GB 1RX8 PC3L-12800E-11-13-D1. If I read this correctly, this means the dimms are udimm memory and thus compatible with the system.

I have checked the CPU for a bent pin but everything looked fin. Also cleaned it just in case.

I also have access to the ILO.

Anyone would have a clue about my issue? Is there a chance I bought the wrong rams? Can the problem come from somewhere else?

Hello,

You may refer to knowledge base article "HPE ProLiant SL270s Gen8 Server - Server May Halt on Pre POST Screen with No Display After Updating BIOS to 09/08/2013". Though this talks about a BIOS update to HPE ProLiant SL270s Gen8 Server, the solution involves performing a cold boot. Hence, please review this article and perform the recommendation and see if it helps.

Regards,
