Fallback Mode - Memory Problem

The ESX server is not booting and I found the following errors in the dmesg log file after doing a vm-support command. Does anyone know where else in the logs I can find more information about this error? Does anyone know what could be the problem?

Did your server ever boot succesfully? Ik looks like you got some bad memory in the server.

This is a good question. I'll get back to the administrator to find out.

Thanks
