I purchased old Z600 (dual processor configuration) and it worked perfect for a good month. Then when I had a chance I removed the ram/cpu for a general cleaning / repasting. When I put it back together it gave me a 203 and 209 error about the DIMM 3 failing and now it only reports 10 gb of ram usable out of 12 (6x2gb config). I have done all physical trouble shooting I could do like cleaning/checking connections. Most likely a trace is gone, but is their anything I can do otherwise? Through BIOS or software? I think its important to know the RAM configuration was messed up and I didn't notice until I removed the ram. It had in it: 2 sticks of OEM ECC ram 4 sticks of 3rd party NON-ECC RAM I forget the order they were put in and the order I put them back in might of been different, but for trouble shooting I tried different modules in different slots and configurations and still only DIMM 3 on one CPU is a lame duck. Didn't think that was suppose to work but it did (and quite well tbh). If it doesn't work out I am just going to upgrade to 16 4x4 and use 4 channels instead of 6 *** I use this computer for hobbyist 1080 video editing ***
