Hi,

I trying to assemble my workstation at home.

The motherboard is S2600cP2,

The CPUs are E-2620 V2 (dual)

Memory Modules are kvr13lr9d4/16ha

When i try to powerup the machine it boots up with the following message with 3 beeps

Installed BIOS: SE5C600.86B.01.08.0003

Platfrom ID: s2600CP

No usable memory found.

Is this issue related to the

lower BIOS version/ Due to the CPUs which might require a bios upgrade.

or

Incompatible DDR3 memory.

Thanks,

Vishnu

More likely it's the memory.

BIOS 01.08.0003 should be able to boot a Xeon E5-2600 V2 processor, although BIOS 02.01.0002 is needed for the CPU to be fully functional.

It's highly recommended that you select memory (and other hardware accessories) from the http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/sb/CS-033388.htm Memory and Hardware Compatibility list.
