System Startup
After making sure that you have set up the system properly and connected all the
required cables, you may now apply power to the system.
Turning On the System Power
To power on the system, press the power switch on the front panel (see section
2.1.1) The system starts up and displays a welcome message. After that, a series
of power-on self-test (POST) messages appear on the monitor display screen. The
POST messages indicate if the system is running well or not.
If the system does not turn on or boot after
pressing the power switch, go to the next
section for the possible causes of the boot
failure.
Aside from the self-test messages, you can determine if the system is in good
condition by checking if the following occurred:
•
Power indicator LED on the front bezel lights up (green)
•
Power, Num Lock, and Caps Lock LED indicators on the keyboard light
up
•
Power supply power LED located at the back of the system lights up
(green)
