out of revision is one of the explanations i have heard used for that problem. basicaly what it means is that there is an incompatibility between the DIMM's (memory) that are installed in your machine. It is best to find that DIMM and remove it and replace it with a DIMM that matches the other ones on your motherboard. Check with the manufacturer of that board for the type of memory and the max amount that can be installed

How many dimm's are installed?
If there are only two, remove one of them and reboot then change.If you do not get the message at both procedures then check if they are the same ( same branch ,same speed enso.)
By more then two dimms check first the identity and remove the one who is different.
Out of rev means they do not work together, different types...
good luck
