Hi Everyone.
I have seen similiar posts but not the one I was hoping for to get help
I bought the below hardware
Motherboard: H11DSi-NT | Motherboards | Super Micro Computer, Inc. Rev 2 SuperMicro - H11DSi-NT
CPU: 2x https://www.amd.com/en/products/cpu/amd-epyc-7742 - AMD Epyc 7742
RAM: 4x DDR4 RDIMM 64GB 2Rx4 3200 CL22 | MTA36ASF8G72PZ-3G2B2 | Crucial.com - 4x Micron DDR4 RDIMM 64GB 2Rx4 3200 CL22
To my knowledge nothing is damaged or broken,
but no matter what I do, I cant get the server to turn on, I highly suspect its either the ram or the way its plugged in or to little so the 2 below siutations happens
1) I put both CPU in, and put 2x Dimm on each CPU like the manual recommends putting it in C and D for both, the server turns on, but it doesnt go into bios now everything I read says its points to the memory. No matter what different order I put them same result
2) I unplug 1 cpu and only run with 1, if I plug in the power it wont even turn on, again no matter if I use 1 dimm or put in all 4 nothing happens.
So I was hoping someone had a conclusion is this because it needs a minimum of 8 DIMMs in before the CPU works? I would think it can turn on with only 1 DIMM per CPU but again these are monster CPU so I cant figure it out. I am 99% sure all the parts are compatible with each other so there should be no reason for them to not work. The motherboard all the lights that must turn green and blink and nothing red no beeping nothing, I been working for servers for years and my gut tells me this is either not enough memory modules or something isn't right.
Hoping someone has a suggestion I can try. I don't mind buying more memory but if its not the memory would be a large amount of wasted money.
