February 4, 20197 yr I have a few different errors and they kinda point towards memory but was wondering if it might be something else seeing as the memory is pretty new. It is 2 16gb ecc sticks that are maybe 6 months old at the most. I'm more worried about the motherboard and/or cpu which had concrete thermal paste for who knows how long. I bought it used. So here is the errors and I will include the full log aswell.

February 4, 20197 yr Community Expert Look for a system log/event system log on the board bios, there should be more info there, like which dimm is the problem.
February 4, 20197 yr Author I tried that first but cant find anything in the bios page. But also I'm not as familiar with this old Lenovo s30 bios. Its has a 1620v2
February 4, 20197 yr Author Also side note. Did just notice that the mobo and cpu are quad channel but I only have 2 sticks in. Would their be any real world performance increase upgrading to quad channel ecc?

February 4, 20197 yr Author Ok. My plan is to upgrade to a ryzen with more cores and ddr4 sometime this year. That should be faster
February 4, 20197 yr Author I dont see any kind of log in the bios page at all. What am I looking for?
February 4, 20197 yr Community Expert server/workstations boards usually have a 11 hours ago, johnnie.black said: system log/event system log but never had any Lenovo, so maybe there's not one.
February 5, 20197 yr Community Expert Usually means there's a bad DIMM, it just doesn't tell which one, try removing one at a time and see if the errors stop.
February 5, 20197 yr Author Well this sucks because the code only pops up at random. Not immediately. Was running all day yesterday and the code didn't come back till 4am
February 5, 20197 yr Author Strangely enough it is at the same time. Not sure if its connected but it is right before daily mover schedule.
