or the peripheral device.

Turn off the system and all external peripheral devices.
2
Disconnect each device from the system, except for the keyboard
and the display monitor.

Make sure the system power cord is plugged into a properly
grounded AC outlet and in the power supply module cord socket.
4
Make sure the display monitor and keyboard are correctly
connected to the system.

Turn on the display monitor.
6
Set the display brightness and contrast controls to at least two
thirds of their maximum range.
Refer to the documentation that came with your display monitor.

If the operating system normally loads from the hard drive, make
sure there is no diskette in floppy drive and no disc in the optical
drive.

If the power indicator is lit, attempt to boot from a floppy diskette
or from a disc.
