Sorry off again...

I have tried all the test in the XD and all were successfull except the Modem selftests
Code:
Diagnostics Menu:
Non destructive tests:
     P - Parameter checksum
     I - I2C access (get BMC Device ID record)
     L - LAN access (PING)
     M - Modem selftests
Destructive tests:
     R - Restart MP

Enter menu item or [Q] to Quit: M
M

   Confirm? (Y/[N]): Y
Y

   Please wait .................


   -> Test result: FAIL

<CR> to continue...

Is this causing the problem? I thought it was some memory issues(after a lot of googling and your inputs)

And I think we are using 8 1GB ram modules.
Code:
 MEMORY STATUS TABLE (MB) (Current Boot Status)

Slot 0a  1024M   Active
Slot 0b  1024M   Active

Slot 1a  1024M   Active
Slot 1b  1024M   Active

Slot 2a  1024M   Active
Slot 2b  1024M   Active

Slot 3a  1024M   Active
Slot 3b  1024M   Active

Slot 4a  0
Slot 4b  0

Slot 5a  0
Slot 5b  0

Subtotal 8192M

   TOTAL =  8192 MB
           ---------

And I think 4 of them are damaged.

So do I have any option other than replacing the RAM?

Will skipping the selftests help?
