Yes I did, Andrew. There are 2 x 512MB sticks in each. They were swapped with the working server. The message comes up in two places - and using the Smartstart CD. 1) With Windows Server 2000 - it blue screens when "Installing Hardware". 2) With Windows Server 2003 - it blue screens after the final re-boot.

Is this error appearing in the operating system, or before the OS starts? Did you install using the HP SmartStart CD, which installs a whole array of drivers which don't get installed for the backplane, array controller, etc? Thanks.

Two identical servers. Memory swapped between the two, so that (hopefully) eliminates "Memory Parity error" These are two HP DL380 G3 Servers.
