I've got a brand new ML150 G3 with the December 2006 version of the 007 BIOS installed.
It came with 512MB RAM installed in slot 1 (HP p/n 398705-051).
I bought another 512MB if RAM (same part number) from an on-line e-tailer. It came in a box with an unbroken HP seal.
I installed the new RAM in slot 3. Pressed power on and the system fan runs at 100% and the machine stays in that condition for minutes - until I power down.
I swapped the RAM modules; 3 to 1 and 1 to 3. Same problem.
I took out the original RAM and installed the new RAM in slot 1. Same problem.
I took out the new RAM and re-installed the original RAM in slot 1. Everything works perfectly!
I'm outside the return date to the e-tailer. Does this sound like a RAM module problem and, if it is, what can I do about it?
If it's not a RAM module problem, what are the possible solutions?
Thanks.

Re: ML150 G3 RAM problem with matched pair
What happens when you try each of the single DIMMs in turn ?

Re: ML150 G3 RAM problem with matched pair
OK, call the original (shipped 512MB) RAM, RAM1.
Call the new (part number identical) RAM, RAM2.
RAM1 in slot 1 - system boots.
RAM2 in slot 1 - system fails to boot, fan 100%.
RAM1 in slot 1, RAM2 in slot 3 - system fails to boot, fan 100%.
RAM2 in slot 1, RAM1 in slot 3 - system fails to boot, fan 100%.
RAM1 in slot 1, RAM2 in slot 2 - system boots but doesn't recognise RAM2.
RAM2 in slot 1, RAM1 in slot 2 - system fails to boot, fan 100%.
Does this make sense?
