Troubleshooting
This chapter provides a few useful tips to quickly get
96M4321o
running
with success. As basic hardware installation has been addressed in Chapter 2, this
chapter will primarily focus on system integration issues, in terms of BIOS setting,
and OS diagnostics.
5.1
Hardware Quick Installation
Backplane
96M4321o
is a full-sized Signal Board Computer, and therefore is only able
to run on PICMG 1.3 backplane. To know whether your backplane is PICMG 1.3
backplane, please contact with vendor or manufacturer.
P4 Power connector
The CPU supplementary Power Connector (J10) has to be connected to a system all
the time no matter using ATX mode. Otherwise, the system won’t boot up properly.
Serial ATA Hard Disk employment
Each Serial ATA channel can only connect to one SATA hard disk at a time; there are
total four connectors, J27/J28/J31/J32. The installation of Serial ATA is simpler and
easier than IDE, because SATA hard disk doesn’t require setting up Master and
Slave, which can reduce mistake of hardware installation. All you need to do is to
plug in two cables and enable SATA in System BIOS.
