replace the FRU indicated in the check procedure. If no check procedure is indicated, the first Action/
FRU listed in the right column is the most likely cause.
Error Symptom
Action/FRU
System / Power-saving functions
NOTE: Ensure that the memory modules are installed properly and that the contact leads are clean before
diagnosing any system problems.
System fails to enter power saving mode when the
Power Management Mode
is set to
Enabled
and the
power saving timer set in BIOS has elapsed.
1. Non-PnP/ACPI compatible operating system (e.g., DOS,
Windows 95): Enter the BIOS Setup to enable the power
saving mode and set the proper timing requirement.
ACPI compatible operating system (e.g., Windows 98):
Enable the power saving mode and set the proper timing
requirements in the Power Management Properties of the
Control Panel.
2. Reload the software from the Recovery CD.
System hangs before system boot.
1. See the “List of error beeps for BIOS boot block flash” on
page 70.
