Do you get any beeps or any other trouble indication?

Have you tried putting the memory back to the original configuration.

Hello,
What was the reason for changing the memory or you just added more memory to your server?? Each Memory Board requires two Voltage Regulator Modules, VRMs. The VRMs are not hot pluggable or redundant but can be swapped for troubleshooting purposes.
It is not necessary to remove the Memory Boards from the Processor/Memory Drawer in order to replace or swap the VRMs. The VRMs of both Memory Boards are accessible after the drawer is removed from the server's chassis.

Regards,

At that time, the original memory is on the board at the old position. They try to init 2 or 3 minutes to init the video and then they reset again...
